The Chinese Commerce Ministry said on April 18 that Beijing is banning the exports and imports of two U.S. defense contractors, Lockheed Martin and Raytheon Technologies, for supplying weapons to Taiwan.
The ban is part of the sanctions imposed against Lockheed Martin and Raytheon Missiles & Defense—a subsidiary of Raytheon Technologies—in February “to prevent Chinese products from being used in their military business,” the ministry stated.
