(Bloomberg) -- China issued new rules to protect its companies and citizens from what it described as “unjustified” use of foreign laws.

The rules, effective immediately, allow authorities to ban the imposition of other jurisdictions’ laws and measures on Chinese entities when it deems them inappropriate, the Ministry of Commerce said in a statement on its website on Saturday.
