China is not having it! 🙅♂️ On Friday, the Chinese mainland voiced strong opposition to the U.S.'s move to add Chinese companies to its export control \\"entity list\\".
The U.S. Department of Commerce announced on Thursday that 37 Chinese entities have been blacklisted, accusing them of involvement in military and Russian affairs.
A spokesperson for China's Ministry of Commerce didn't mince words, saying that the U.S. has been overusing the concept of national security and abusing export control measures to suppress companies from other countries. 😤
\\"This seriously damages the legitimate rights and interests of the companies, undermines global industrial and supply chains, and hampers the world's economic recovery,\\" the spokesperson emphasized.
China is urging the U.S. to \\"immediately stop its wrong practices\\" and promised to take necessary measures to protect Chinese companies' rights. 💪🇨🇳
At a regular press briefing, Lin Jian, spokesperson for the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, pointed out that the U.S. fails to provide evidence when suppressing Chinese companies under the guise of \\"national security.\\"
He also mentioned that China and Russia are entitled to conduct normal economic and trade cooperation, which should not be disrupted or contained. 🤝
This pushback marks another chapter in the ongoing trade tensions between the two global giants. Stay tuned for more updates! 📺
