This afternoon, the Ministry of Commerce held a regular press conference. A press spokesman explained that China has made numerous statements and resolutely opposes unilateral sanctions that have no basis in international law and are not authorized by the UN Security Council. Despite repeated negotiations with China, the US side has repeatedly sanctioned Chinese enterprises and citizens on the grounds that they are involved in Iran. China is strongly dissatisfied and resolutely opposed to this. The US unilateral sanctions improperly interfere with normal economic and trade exchanges between the countries concerned and seriously interfere with global energy security and stable supply. China urges the US side to immediately correct its erroneous practices and lift the sanctions against the relevant Chinese enterprises and citizens. China will firmly uphold the legitimate rights and interests of our enterprises and citizens.
