ATTENTION: 🇨🇳 #china retaliates and imposes sanctions on authorities of 🇺🇸 USA for position on Hong Kong📝📊📈😎😃

Beijing will impose sanctions on several members of the American Congress, government officials, and NGO leaders

The 🇨🇳 China will impose sanctions on some authorities of the United States and leaders of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) for flagrant behaviors related to Hong Kong, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs reported. The sanctions are a response to the penalties imposed by the United States in March against six Chinese and Hong Kong authorities, said the ministry spokesperson, Guo Jiakun, at a press conference on this Monday, 21.

Beijing will impose sanctions on several members of the American Congress, government officials, and NGO leaders for having “misbehaved in issues related to #HongKong ,” said Jiakun, without revealing the names.

The spokesperson warned that the United States is not allowed to interfere in the affairs of Hong Kong. Beijing considers Hong Kong an inalienable part of 🇨🇳 China. “Any wrong actions taken by 🇺🇸 USA in issues related to Hong Kong will be responded to with firm counterattacks and reciprocal measures from 🇨🇳 China,” said Guo.

The measure comes weeks after the 🇺🇸 USA Department of State imposed sanctions on Chinese and Hong Kong authorities, citing the ongoing political repression in Hong Kong – and the efforts to extend this repression to citizens of 🇺🇸 USA and the restrictions on access to Tibet.

The six authorities cited by the 🇺🇸 USA include Raymond Siu, police commissioner of Hong Kong, and Paul Lam, Secretary of Justice of the city.
