China Sanctions Boeing and US Defense Contractors Over Taiwan Arms Sales
Beijing targets Boeing Defense, General Atomics, and General Dynamics amid escalating US-China tensions
- China's Commerce Ministry has placed the companies on its 'unreliable entity' list, restricting trade and investment activities.
- Sanctions coincide with the inauguration of Taiwan's new president, who supports strong US-Taiwan military ties.
- Boeing, General Atomics, and General Dynamics face limited impact due to minimal business operations in China.
- The move follows recent US tariffs on Chinese imports and ongoing geopolitical frictions.
- Executives from the sanctioned companies are barred from entering China, with their work permits and visas revoked.
