BEIJING (Reuters) – China’s commerce ministry on Thursday expressed opposition to the U.S. sanctions on Chinese firms involved in making and shipping attack drones for Russia.
“China firmly opposes unilateral sanctions and long-arm jurisdiction without the basis of international law and the authorization of the UN Security Council,” ministry spokesperson He Yadong said at a press briefing.
China will resolutely safeguard its own legitimate rights and interests, He said.
