State Department Says Chinese Satellite Company Supporting Houthi Attacks on US Interests

Beijing’s support of the company ‘is yet another example of China’s empty claims to support peace,’ State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce said.

The U.S. State Department has dismissed communist China’s self-proclaimed role as a “global peacemaker,” saying a Chinese satellite company supported by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has directly supported the Iran-backed Houthi terrorist group’s attacks on U.S. interests.

At a regular press briefing on April 17, State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce confirmed that Chang Guang Satellite Technology (CGST) “is directly supporting” the Houthis and called such action “unacceptable.”
