The servicemembers — many wearing rainbow and unicorn patches on their uniforms — called on the government to grant them official partnership rights.

    China's Wuhan Tianyu says inclusion on US sanctions list may impact forex transactions

    China's Wuhan Tianyu Information Industry said on Sunday the U.S. including it on a sanctions list was a "unilateral" act that could affect the data security company's foreign exchange settlements. The U.S. Treasury Department on Wednesday widened sanctions aimed at curbing Russia's war production in response to Moscow's invasion of Ukraine, targeting third-party entities, including dozens of suppliers of electronics in China. The reason and details of its inclusion on the U.S. "Specially Designated Nationals" list have not been verified, and the company will actively communicate with all parties as soon as possible in the hope of obtaining a "fair and just" solution, Tianyu said in a filing to the Shenzhen Stock Exchange.
