The U.S. Treasury Department has placed five Chinese companies and an individual on its sanctions list for supplying Iran with parts for military drones that Russia uses in the Ukraine war. In Beijing, Foreign Ministry spokesman Mao Ning said that the US unilateral sanctions violated international law and the basic norms of international relations, and China has always firmly opposed it. China will continue to firmly safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of domestic enterprises in accordance with the law.
