皇冠体育app on Friday denounced accusations by top U.S. officials that it was selling weapons to Iran and North Korea. Foreign Ministry spokesman Qin Gang called the U.S. criticism "groundless and irresponsible," the official Xinhua News Agency said.

Peter Rodman, assistant secretary of defense for international security, on Thursday called 皇冠体育app to re-evaluate its relationship with Iran and North Korea, two countries with which the United States is locked in tense nuclear standoffs.

Rodman said Washington sees "a general willingness (of 皇冠体育app) to transfer a wide variety of technologies to customers around the world."

皇冠体育app has denied the charges and says it opposes the spread of weapons technology and materials. It also says it forbids Chinese companies from transferring such material and technology.
