Chinese Communist officials and state media responded angrily on Thursday to U.S. sanctions against Chinese firms for their alleged role in the fentanyl drug crisis.
President Joe Biden imposed the sanctions against four Chinese pillmakers by executive order on Wednesday, to “help disrupt the global supply chain and the financial networks that enable synthetic opioids and precursor chemicals to reach the United States,” as Secretary of State Antony Blinken put it.
Also subjected to Treasury Department action was an individual named Chuen Fat Yip, described as “one of the largest, if not the largest, producers of anabolic steroids in the world.” Yip, a 68-year-old resident of the now-infamous city of Wuhan, allegedly shipped millions of dollars’ worth of fentanyl ingredients from Shanghai and Hong Kong to illicit customers worldwide.
One of the shipments traced to Yip’s operation included 24 kilograms of fentanyl precursors. According to the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA), one kilogram (2.2 lbs.) of fentanyl can kill up to 500,000 people.
Federal drug charges were filed against Yip on Tuesday by the U.S. Attorney’s office in the Northern District of Texas, which seized an estimated $2.3 million in cryptocurrency from Yip’s digital wallet in November.
“This defendant allegedly made millions manufacturing and distributing anabolic steroids and fentanyl precursors to American customers. The Justice Department will pursue drug defendants to the furthest reaches of the globe if that’s what it takes to stem the tide of the drug epidemic,” said U.S. Attorney Chad Meacham.

Chinese say “If Joe Biden can lie like ‘H’, we can too, and we can do it even better.”
China is the a**hole of nations.
Oh, well then excuse us CCP, for being so wrong again, as we are always wrong and you are always right. /s
Right… just like they had nothing to do with sending COVID-19 out.
Is that like the sign on a chinese restaurant?
WE NO SEE YOUR CAT.
Not counting flooding our country with it 🤪
Like libtards saying they don’t have anything to do with illegals.
I’m speechless
It also has nothing to do with Covid
Uh-huh.
Sure thing, Xi.
China sells abundantly the pre-curser chemicals to make Fentanyl to Mexico, and on line.......because Mexico can’t find enough chemists to do it. Then it’s nothing to put together and ship into the USA.
You can go on line and bring up lots of buildings in China manufacturing the chemicals for Fentanyl. One guy went under cover and wrote a story about it. These buildings are housed all over China.
Like the Chicoms would admit it.
Din’t do nuffin.

Made in China for very cheap by CCP-owned and managed companies, smuggled into Mexico to PAP-run Chinese cartel, sold by Chinese cartel to Mexican cartels, smuggled into the US. You are right, the CCP is not responsible!
China claims it is not responsible for the Wuhan Flu.
