China threatens retaliation after US sanctions 2 Chinese firms
World
China says it's ready to hit back after the US slapped sanctions on two Chinese firms over their dealings with a third party.
Beijing called the move unfair and said it hurts Chinese companies' rights, warning that these kinds of actions only add more tension to U.S.-China trade relations.
US restricts firms working with Cuba
The US announced these restrictions on Thursday, November 5, 2026, targeting foreign companies working with Cuba in tech, electronics, manufacturing, and marine sectors.
China argues that these rules don't just hurt its own firms: they also disrupt local companies and undermine stability in economic and trade relations.
The Ministry of Commerce urged the US to "correct its wrong practices" as soon as possible.
