China sanctions US lawmakers, officials, NGO heads

China announced Monday it will impose sanctions on US Congressmen, officials, and heads of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) for "egregious behavior” on Hong Kong-related issues.

"Hong Kong is China's Hong Kong, and Hong Kong affairs do not allow interference from the US. Any wrong actions taken by the US on Hong Kong-related issues will be resolutely countered by China with reciprocal countermeasures," Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun told reporters in Beijing.
