US hits more Chinese companies over ties to alleged human rights abuses | Malay Mail

WASHINGTON, Dec 16 — The US Commerce Department hit several Chinese companies with export restrictions today, citing national security reasons including what Washington says is their role in oppressing China’s Uighurs or helping Beijing’s military.

Citing their role in the Chinese government’s alleged oppression of ethnic Uighurs, the Commerce Department added China’s Academy of Military Medical Sciences and its 11 research institutes to its list of companies and institutions, restricting access to exports. UN experts and rights groups estimate more than a million people, mainly Uighurs and members of other Muslim minorities, have been detained in recent years in a vast system of camps in China’s far-west region of Xinjiang.The so-called entity list has become a go-to tool for Washington in the US-China tech feud since the Trump administration. Suppliers to companies that have been placed on the list must seek a special license from the Commerce Department to ship goods to the targetted company.
