Top Republican lawmakers are calling on the Biden administration to take forceful measures against the Chinese regime, after Beijing slapped sanctions on former Trump administration officials, including former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo.
The sanctions were announced on Jan. 20, the same day that President Joe Biden was sworn into office. A Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson accused the U.S. officials of carrying out “a series of crazy moves” that “seriously interfered with China’s internal affairs” and “seriously disrupted China-U.S. relations.”
