CNN
The US is expected to announce sanctions Monday against China in coordination with the European Union for Beijing's ongoing repression of Uyghur Muslims, a campaign that Secretary of State Antony Blinken has described as genocide.
The coordinated sanctions announcement, including US penalties that are expected to come Monday, according to an administration official, come days after a heated clash between Blinken, National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan and senior Chinese officials prompted by US objections to Beijing's human rights abuses, its territorial aggression and coercive economic practices.
