Africa-Press – Mauritius. <\/strong><\/span>Beijing has designated at least seven US companies as \u201cunreliable entities,\u201d after a similar move in early January by Washington to list Chinese entities allegedly tied to its military.<\/p>\n

The Commerce Ministry said in a statement late Tuesday that the companies are banned from China-related commercial activities and investing in China, and their chief executives are banned from entering or working in China.<\/p>\n

The companies were banned for selling arms to Taiwan, which Beijing considers its \u201cbreakaway province.\u201d<\/p>\n

The list of banned companies includes Inter-Coastal Electronics, System Studies & Simulation, IronMountain Solutions, Applied Technologies Group, Axient, Anduril Industries, and Maritime Tactical Systems.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese seriously violate the one-China principle and the three China-US joint communiques, interfere in China\u2019s internal affairs, and undermine China\u2019s sovereignty and territorial integrity,\u201d said the ministry.<\/p>\n

In early January, the US added leading Chinese companies such as Tencent Holdings, a social media and gaming powerhouse, and CATL, the world\u2019s leading battery manufacturer, to expand its list of entities allegedly tied to the People’s Liberation Army.<\/p>\n

Washington’s designation does not impose instant bans but could hurt the firms\u2019 reputation. It serves as a warning to US businesses about the risks of working with them and could push the US Treasury to consider sanctions. The list, updated annually and currently including 134 companies, identifies Chinese firms believed to operate directly or indirectly within the US while allegedly supporting Beijing\u2019s military agenda.<\/p>\n
