According to the website of the Ministry of Commerce, on October 10th, a spokesman of the Ministry of Commerce answered a reporter’s question about the US Department of Commerce upgrading its export control to China in the fields of semiconductors and adjusting its "unverified list" of export control.

A reporter asked: Recently, the US Department of Commerce upgraded its export control measures to China in the fields of semiconductor manufacturing and advanced computing. At the same time, in the process of removing 9 China entities from the "unverified list", 31 China entities were added. What is China’s response to this?

A: China has noticed the relevant situation. First of all, through the joint efforts of China and the United States in the previous stage, nine China entities were finally removed from the "unverified list", which was welcomed by Chinese and American enterprises. This shows that as long as the two sides adhere to the principle of frank cooperation and mutual benefit, they can find solutions that are beneficial to both enterprises.

At the same time, however, the United States added 31 China entities to the "unverified list" and further upgraded export control measures in the fields of semiconductors. This is a typical technological bullying practice, which not only violates the spirit of cooperation between the two sides and ignores the facts of cooperation between the two sides, but also seriously hinders the normal economic and trade exchanges between Chinese and American enterprises, seriously undermines market rules and international economic and trade order, and seriously threatens the stability of the global industrial chain supply chain. China firmly opposes this.

The US approach not only affects the legitimate rights and interests of China enterprises, but also harms the legitimate commercial interests of American export enterprises. The United States should immediately stop its wrong practices and give fair treatment to enterprises from all countries, including China enterprises. China calls on all parties to strengthen cooperation and jointly build a safe, stable, smooth, efficient, open, inclusive and mutually beneficial global industrial chain supply chain system.
