China Ramps Up Trade Measures Against US Companies
Seven U.S. companies just landed on China's 'unreliable entity list' for selling weapons to the Taiwan region, according to a Tuesday announcement from China's Ministry of Commerce. The move comes amid heightened tensions over cross-strait relations and U.S.-China economic friction.
The companies now face restrictive measures under Chinese law, though specifics remain under wraps. Authorities emphasized the decision aligns with efforts to safeguard national sovereignty, calling the arms sales a 'serious violation' of international norms. 🔒⚖️
Analysts say this escalation highlights Beijing's zero-tolerance stance on foreign involvement in Taiwan affairs. With cross-strait diplomacy already strained, the list adds fuel to ongoing debates about tech trade, defense partnerships, and global supply chains. 💥🌐
