At a press briefing on Saturday, the Chinese Ministry of Commerce strongly condemned the United States for adding multiple Chinese entities to its export control list. Beijing described the move as a 'unilateral and bullying practice' that risks shaking the foundations of global trade.
The latest action by the US Commerce Department imposes fresh licensing requirements on a range of firms across sectors such as telecommunications, AI and advanced manufacturing. By citing national security, Washington aims to restrict access to certain technologies and components.
China’s Ministry of Commerce warned that using export measures for political purposes disrupts global supply chains and undermines the rules-based system championed by WTO members. The statement urged the United States to roll back its restrictions and return to dialogue.
Business and tech communities around the world are watching closely. Entrepreneurs and supply-chain managers say these export curbs could fuel a new wave of diversification as companies seek alternative partners and markets to avoid sudden policy shifts.
As Sino-US tensions over technology and trade intensify, the outcome of this latest dispute could shape the future of global innovation. Will both sides find common ground, or will fragmentation become the new normal? The next steps will be watched by governments, investors and digital nomads alike.
