Apple on Tuesday removed Skype and a few other apps from its app store in China, after the country's government told Apple the apps violated local laws, Reuters reported Tuesday.

"We have been notified by the Ministry of Public Security that a number of voice over internet protocol apps do not comply with local law, therefore these apps have been removed from the App Store in China," an Apple spokeswoman told Reuters.
