And unjustifiably suppress Chinese enterprises! U.S. Department of Commerce Adds 33 Chinese Entities to So-Called "Unverified List"

【Global Network Report】Abuse of sanctions, the United States is addicted? According to US media reports, the Biden administration put 33 Chinese entities on the Commerce Department's "Unverified List" on the 7th, imposed new restrictions on the acquisition of products from US exporters by these entities, and required additional investigations of US companies that want to do business with these Chinese companies. China's Foreign Ministry has previously said that China has always opposed the US side's generalization of the concept of national security and its unreasonable suppression of Chinese enterprises.

According to reports, the U.S. Department of Commerce's Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) issued a statement on the 7th local time, announcing that 33 entities headquartered in China will be included in the so-called "unverified list". Companies on the list must submit to stricter export controls because U.S. officials cannot routinely check them.

The Commerce Department statement quoted Matthew S. Axelrod, assistant secretary for export enforcement, as saying: "Adding 33 Chinese parties to the 'unverified list' today will assist U.S. exporters in conducting due diligence and assessing risks, and signal to the Chinese government the importance of their cooperation in arranging end-user verification." ”

According to US media reports, most of the companies included in the list are electronics companies, but there are also optical companies, a wind turbine blade company and the university's national laboratory and other companies. With the inclusion of these 33 Chinese entities, the total number of entities on the list has reached about 175. Other countries with entities on the list include Russia and the United Arab Emirates.

The United States has previously placed a number of Chinese institutions on its so-called "entity list." In December last year, when the U.S. side put eight Chinese companies on the "investment blacklist" on the grounds of so-called Xinjiang-related issues, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian said at the time that China has always opposed the US side's generalization of the concept of national security and unreasonable suppression of Chinese enterprises. China will pay close attention to the developments and, as always, resolutely safeguard the legitimate and legitimate rights and interests of Chinese enterprises.
