The White House sanctioned 24 Chinese officials just a day before US Secretary of State Antony Blinken’s meeting in Alaska with top Chinese diplomats.
The restrictions have emerged as an expansion of sanctions imposed by the previous US administration.They come under the Hong Kong Autonomy Act (HKAA), passed by the US last year in response to a Chinese security law banning Hong Kong from secession, subversion and from collusion with foreign forces.
