The United States is imposing new sanctions on certain Chinese entities and people who it accuses of knowingly transferring oil from Iran in violation of Washington's curbs on Tehran, US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said on Wednesday.
The US Treasury Department announced that it is placing sanctions on five Chinese nationals and six entities, including two Cosco Shipping Corporation subsidiaries.
"And we are telling China, and all nations: know that we will sanction every violation," Pompeo said at a conference on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly in New York.
