The U.S. announced a large-scale sale of weapons to Taiwan, and China took countermeasures against 20 U.S. defense-related companies.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has released the "Decision on Taking Countermeasures Against U.S. Military-Industrial Related Enterprises and Senior Officials."

Recently, the United States announced a large-scale sale of weapons to Taiwan, which seriously violates the One-China Principle and the three Sino-U.S. joint communiqués, seriously interferes in China's internal affairs, and severely undermines China's sovereignty and territorial integrity. According to Articles 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, and 15 of the "Law of the People's Republic of China on Countering Foreign Sanctions," the Chinese government has decided to take countermeasures against the following U.S. military-industrial related enterprises and senior officials:
