US officials sanctioned

China on Monday announced sanctions against 11 U.S. officials with egregious records on Hong Kong affairs, according to Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian at a press briefing.

Zhao made the remarks in response to a request for comment on the so-called sanctions by the U.S. Government against 11 officials of the Chinese Central Government and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) Government. The Liaison Office of the Central People’s Government in the HKSAR on Monday voiced strong support for the counter-measure against the United States by the foreign ministry.

Level playing field

The United States should stop making groundless allegations against Chinese companies including TikTok and give them a level playing field, Chinese Ambassador to the United States Cui Tiankai has said.

“I don’t think there’s any evidence that any company is giving such information to the Chinese government. People make these allegations, but they never show any evidence,” said Cui in response to the U.S. Government’s allegations that TikTok might give its data to the Chinese Government when he was attending the 2020 Aspen Security Forum.

Meteorological satellites

China plans to launch two more meteorological satellites in 2021, sources with the China Aerospace Science and Technology Corp. has said.

One of the planned satellites is called Fengyun-3E (FY-3E). It will be the fifth member of the country’s Fengyun-3 series of satellites in polar orbit and the world’s first meteorological satellite in dawn-dusk a orbit. A dawn-dusk orbit is a sun-synchronous orbit in which the satellite tracks but never moves into the Earth’s shadow. Since the satellite is close to the shadow, the part of Earth the satellite is directly above is always at sunset or sunrise, giving the orbit its name.

Man set free

Zhang Yuhuan from Jiangxi Province had his name cleared and was freed last week due to insufficient evidence for his conviction of intentional homicide, about 27 years after he was wrongly detained.

Zhang, a villager from Jinxian County of Nanchang, capital of Jiangxi, was reportedly the longest-serving wrongfully convicted inmate in the nation. He has been informed he has the right to apply for State compensation for wrongful conviction, according to the court. (SD-Agencies)
