China sanctions US companies over military sales, aid to Taiwan, will it impact Washington?

In response to the US's announcement of military sales to Taiwan, China on Friday placed sanctions on seven American companies. Recently, the US government approved an annual defence spending bill, which the Chinese Foreign Ministry statement said “includes multiple negative sections on China.” China has lodged continuous protests over the US's decision of military assistance and aid to Taiwan and has sanctioned the involved companies. Moreover, sanctions might not have an impact on US companies as American defence companies don't sell arms or other military goods to China. Notably, the United States is Taiwan's largest weapon supplier.
