China says will freeze out US companies that sell Taiwan arms

– China’s government and Chinese companies will cut business ties with US firms selling arms to Taiwan, China’s Foreign Ministry said on Monday, declining to give details of the sanctions in a move likely to worsen already poor ties with Washington.

Last week, the Pentagon said the US State Department had approved the sale of the weapons requested by Taiwan, including 108 General Dynamics Corp M1A2T Abrams tanks and 250 Stinger missiles, which are manufactured by Raytheon .The latest deal involves $2.2 billion worth of tanks, missiles and related equipment for Taiwan.

“I can’t reveal the details at the moment. But believe this – Chinese people always stress standing by their word.” This is not the first time China has said it would sanction US companies selling weapons to Taiwan. China has announced such steps at least twice before – in 2010 and 2015 – but it is unclear if the sanctions were ever imposed.
