The U.S. sets another Chinese tech company in its crosshairs: Nuctech, a state-controlled firm that is quietly dominating Europe’s cargo and airport-screening market

The U.S. is targeting China’s largest maker of security-screening equipment, saying its expanding presence in Europe is a threat to Western security and businesses, according to documents and people familiar with the matter.

A campaign led by the National Security Council and a handful of U.S. agencies is trying to rally European governments to uproot Nuctech Co., a well-connected Chinese state-controlled company whose screening systems for cargo, luggage and passengers are becoming a fixture at ports, border crossings and...

US should start doing the same thing scan everything coming from China

A Chinese company is required by the National Intelligence Law to assist in intelligence work: “state intelligence work organs... may demand that concerned organs, organizations, or citizens provide needed support, assistance, and cooperation.” Nuctech is no exception.

What's really crazy, the US use to do things like that. They would sell products to Europe and the rest of the world, and it had spy tech that told the Americans what those machines were typing or doing. Guess US worries about other nations doing the same thing they did.

The USA can live in the Stone Age without an X-ray machine, but don’t bother other countries for their normal business. Don’t be a loser like this!

Europe doesn’t give a dam*. It seems Europe trusts China more than US now.

Pfft, US media be like. omg China is doing this China is doing that. I don’t believe US is not doing the same for cargo shipment. Oh wait they don’t need to! because PRISM has already obtained all the information it needed right? 🙃

Sound and careful policy when the US is looking at every chance to sabotage you. Like US journals more concerned about China than their own dying economy.

Why USA always complain the things that they already did for 30 years? You are so different? They are two system in the world,: USA ,the other world

Is China using their Military Industrial Tech Industry against the World?

Look what blacks have to say

Yes, should beware of evil CCP’s silent invasion!

That’s the right move. china is using these tech companies to infiltrate

If u have invested in China. Might be a great time to sell

It's shocking to hear that CCP control so many company.

Silent invasion from CCPChina again 🤦

Good the US BIG Business has been to busy bending over for China instead of COMPETING Evidently appeasement is as easy now as it was in 1933.

Be wary of Chinese infiltration, especially through economic means. China isn’t trustworthy, they steal technology, steal information

MeowfromHk Thats what happens when we let CCP grows Glad that the US is doing something here! To fight and warn CCP The party that cares nothing about her people, other people, ethics and rules. BoycottChina

LOL

China is a Devil to the world

Stop any trade with China Almost all companies CEO’s are communist party members. Every country should follow this and isolate China

The action of CCP trying to invade the world needs to be stopped

It’s not okay when security companies are owned by the government. It’s a conflict of interest for the nation state using the technology.

It may be frustrating to wait, we may fear that we'll lose our edge.

A great effort to stem the national security threats from China, companies from which are helping the CCP to infiltrate and collect intelligence.

Well spotted. This is where we draw the line. No more mr nice guy. Tarif the shit out of them. The western world need to start throwing some punches.

Western racists trying desperately to maintain hegemony. Western racism must be uprooted.

So the biggest importer of drugs (fentanyl) is behind screening .ironic Fentanyls killed more than covid

Must ban all Chinese companies around the world until China is liberated from Communists Party. CCP is screwing up entire world.

China is no longer a trustworthy partner to build a reliable, safe, civilized & peaceful world. CCP break promise, use lies, censorship, torture & virus to spoil the world. All countries should find a new partner now. World is much better w/o CCP.

Threats of CCP infiltrates different aspects, industries, religions, constituencies, Art of different countries' enterprises and academics. Military & border dispute raised. Stop them and protect your ppl. Cut all CCP related programmes now for safe.

So it's okay for Washington to use its power to get the contracts instead

I'm tired of winning. Are you?

How is it that Chinese tech companies are so ingrained in so many places? And how will we reconcile TenCent and Alibaba?
