According to him, the restrictive measures introduced by Washington seriously violate the basic norms of international relations.

"This is an interference in the internal affairs of China and is detrimental to the interests of China, we condemn this and express strong opposition to the American side," RIA Novosti quoted the diplomat as saying.

Earlier, the US Department of Commerce announced that it was making 28 Chinese organizations blacklisted because of the "violation of the rights" of the Uyghur population.
