China announced retaliatory sanctions on U.S. lawmakers, government officials, and NGO leaders on Monday, denouncing what it called “egregious behaviour” concerning Hong Kong-related matters.
China has imposed sanctions on some U.S. congress members, government officials as well as heads of non-governmental organisations for "egregious behaviour on Hong Kong-related issues", its foreign ministry said on Monday.
The sanctions come in response to the U.S. sanctioning six Chinese and Hong Kong officials last month, which Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun said China "strongly condemns".
"Any wrong action taken by the U.S. side on the Hong Kong-related issue will be met with resolute and reciprocal counteraction by the Chinese side," Guo said
