Chinese Ministry of Commerce denounces US sanctions
November 13, 2026A spokesman for the Ministry of Commerce of China at a press conference on November 7 condemned the US sanctions against Chinese businesses.
With regard to the US State Department’s announcement of sanctions against two Chinese businesses on November 5, the spokesman said that the unilateral sanctions imposed by the US on the grounds that they are related with a third party are contrary to international law and the basic rules of international relations and, therefore, China strongly opposes them.
Recently, the US has intensified the sanctions and pressure on China and imposed discriminatory restrictions, he said, denouncing this as a serious violation of the rights and interests of Chinese businesses.
China strongly demands that the US put right the wrongs as soon as possible, he stressed, adding it will take necessary measures to defend its legitimate rights and interests.
