China sanctions ex-U.S. lawmaker who supported Taiwan
BEIJING (Reuters) -- China has banned former U.S. lawmaker Mike Gallagher from entering the country and taken other measures in response to his words and actions that "interfered in China's internal affairs," the Foreign Ministry said on Tuesday.
Under the sanctions, China could freeze any assets Gallagher might at some point have in the country and ban organizations and individuals there from trading and cooperating with him, the ministry said.
