China slaps sanctions on Senators Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio & other US officials in retaliation for Hong Kong policy


Beijing will impose sanctions on several US officials, including Republican Senators Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio. The tit-for-tat move comes after Washington unveiled sanctions aimed at Chinese officials over Hong Kong.

The Chinese Foreign Ministry said the restrictions will be put into effect starting on Monday. The retaliatory measures follow US sanctions against 11 officials, who it accuses of suppressing Hong Kong political freedoms.
