Makampuni 13 ya Marekani yanayo jihusisha na uuzaji wa silaha yamekumbana na rungu la China kwa kuiuzia silaha Taiwan.

China imewekea vikwazo kwa kampuni zaidi ya kumi na tatu (13) za ulinzi za Marekani pamoja na maafisa wa sekta ya ulinzi wa Marekani Alhamisi hii (Disemba 5), ikiwa ni hatua ya kulipiza kisasi kwa serikali ya Biden kutokana na kuuza silaha mpya kwa Taiwan, kisiwa kinachojitawala ambacho Beijing inadai kama sehemu ya ardhi yake.
Wizara ya Mambo ya Nje ya China ilisema kwamba idhini ya Washington kwa ajili ya kifurushi cha ulinzi cha dola milioni 387 kwa Taiwan, ambacho kilijumuisha vipuri kwa ndege za kivita, kimeharibu vibaya suvereniti na umoja wa kimataifa wa China.
China ilitaja makampuni 13 ya Marekani katika hatua yake ya Alhamisi, ikiwa ni pamoja na wazalishaji wa drones RapidFlight na BRINC Drones. Maafisa sita wa sekta ya ulinzi pia walikumbwa na vikwazo, wakiwemo Barbara Borgonovi, rais wa Naval Power katika Raytheon, na Blake Resnick, mkurugenzi mtendaji na mwanzilishi wa BRINC Drones.
China imposed sanctions on more than a dozen U.S. defense firms and several American defense industry executives on Thursday in retaliation for the Biden administration’s latest batch of arms sales to Taiwan, the self-governing island claimed by Beijing.
China’s Foreign Ministry said Washington’s approval last month of a $387 million defense package for Taiwan, which included spare parts for fighter jets, had “seriously damaged China’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.”
China named 13 American firms in its action on Thursday, including the drone makers RapidFlight and BRINC Drones. Six executives were also sanctioned, including Barbara Borgonovi, president of Naval Power at Raytheon, and Blake Resnick, the founder and chief executive of BRINC Drones.
In announcing the sanctions, Beijing invoked its recently established Anti-Foreign Sanctions Law, which is part of an expanding assortment of countermeasures mirroring many of the punitive actions that the United States takes against China.
