Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Gao Jiaqin said during a press briefing that the ship seized by the US is a foreign container ship and has no connection to China.

Earlier, former UN Ambassador to the US Nikki Haley had claimed that the Iranian-flagged ship intercepted in the US operation had departed from China and was transporting chemical materials for missiles.
