China sanctions EU officials in response to Uighur row | DW News

Politicians around Europe condemned China’s retaliatory sanctionsafter the EU moved against several top officials in China on Monday.

Earlier on Monday, the European Union, United States, United Kingdom, and Canada imposed sanctions on Beijing over human rights abuses against the Uighurs in Xinjiang.
