China warned on Thursday that it was ready to take "firm countermeasures" against the United States after President Donald Trump signed a law supporting pro-democracy protesters in Hong Kong.

"The nature of this is extremely abominable, and harbors absolutely sinister intentions," the foreign ministry said in a statement, without specifying what measures Beijing might take.
