问：据报道，美国财政部宣布，将对协助朝鲜规避制裁的两家中国公司实施制裁。中方对此有何评论？

　　答：中方一贯认真、严格执行联合国安理会通过的有关涉朝决议。对于中国企业和个人，如有违反联合国安理会决议的行为，一经查实，中方会根据自己的国内法依法依规进行查处。

　　同时，我们坚决反对任何国家根据自身国内法对中国实体实施单边制裁和“长臂管辖”。中方已就此事向美方提出了严正交涉。我们敦促美方立即停止有关错误做法，以免影响双方在有关问题上的合作。

Q: Reports say the US Treasury announced that it will impose sanctions on two Chinese companies which, according to its words, helped the DPRK to evade sanctions. What's your comment?

A: China has all along been earnestly and strictly implementing all DPRK-related resolutions adopted by the UN Security Council. Chinese entities and individuals, once found involved in activities in violation of Security Council resolutions, will be punished in accordance with China's domestic laws and regulations.

Meanwhile, we firmly oppose any country imposing unilateral sanctions or "long-arm jurisdictions" on Chinese entities in accordance with its domestic laws. China has lodged stern representations with the US. We urge the US side to immediately stop its wrong action lest it should affect the cooperation between the two sides on relevant issues.
