China Voices Opposition to US Export Control Measures
At a regular press briefing on June 17, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lin Jian addressed recent reports indicating the US Commerce Department had postponed adding several Chinese companies to its export control entity list. Lin Jian stated that China consistently opposes the politicization of trade and technology issues, particularly the misuse of national security concepts to suppress normal business operations and international cooperation.
US Actions Threaten Global Economic Stability
Lin Jian emphasized that the frequent use of tools such as entity lists to unjustly pressure Chinese firms not only undermines the fairness of international trade rules but also destabilizes global supply chains. Weaponizing economic and technological matters fails to resolve inter-state disputes and instead escalates tensions, hindering global economic recovery efforts.

China remains committed to upholding multilateral trade systems and fostering an open, inclusive global economic order. It calls on the US to address China's concerns seriously, abandon the use of trade and technology as geopolitical tools, and jointly promote a balanced and equitable international development environment.
