The Chinese communist regime’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs has announced sanctions against six U.S. defense companies and five senior executives over an unspecified recent arms sale to Taiwan.

The ministry said in a statement that the sale violates the “one-China principle,” interferes in China’s internal affairs, and undermines China’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.
