Ministry of Commerce: China’s export controls on relevant items do not target any specific country or region
According to the website of the Ministry of Commerce on May 30, the spokesperson of the Ministry of Commerce responded to reporters’ questions on the export control policy of relevant items.
Question: On May 30, the Ministry of Commerce, the General Administration of Customs, and the Equipment Development Department of the Central Military Commission jointly issued an announcement on the implementation of export controls on relevant items. May I ask what considerations China has for introducing export control policies this time?
Answer: On May 30, the Ministry of Commerce, the General Administration of Customs, and the Equipment Development Department of the Central Military Commission jointly issued an announcement, deciding to ban certain equipment and software, technologies such as molds in the aerospace and shipbuilding fields, and ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fiber-related items. Implement export controls. The above policy will be officially implemented on July 1.
It is a common international practice to implement export controls on specific molds, special fiber materials and other related items. China draws on international practices and implements export controls on relevant items based on its own needs, aiming to better safeguard national security and fulfill international obligations such as non-proliferation. The relevant policies do not target any specific country or region. If the export complies with relevant regulations, it will be permitted. The Chinese government firmly safeguards world peace and stability in surrounding areas, ensures the security of global industrial and supply chains, and promotes the development of compliant trade. At the same time, we oppose any country or region using controlled items from China to engage in activities that harm China's national sovereignty, security, and development interests.
