A reporter asked that the US recently sanctioned a number of Chinese companies on the grounds that these companies were suspected of participating in "human rights violations."
In addition, the U.S. Senate passed a bill to ban the import of Xinjiang products.
What is China's response to this?
Wang Wenbin said that the United States has generalized the concept of national security, fabricated various excuses, abused export control measures, and unreasonably suppressed Chinese institutions and enterprises. It has reached the point of hysterical and unscrupulous measures.
The actions of the United States have severely undermined the principles of market economy and international economic and trade rules, and seriously harmed the interests of Chinese institutions and enterprises.
China is strongly dissatisfied with this and resolutely opposes it.
We urge the US to correct its mistakes immediately, and China will take all necessary measures to resolutely safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of Chinese institutions and enterprises.
