The US side made this threat against relevant companies with presumption of guilt while presenting no evidence. This violation of market economy rules is no “fairness” and “freedom” as the US chants and only serves to reveal its hypocrisy and double standards. It also runs counter to the WTO principles of openness, fairness, transparency and non-discrimination. China firmly opposes that.
We call on certain people in the US to heed the voices of the international community, provide an open, fair, just and non-discriminatory environment for all market entities investing and operating in the US, stop politicizing economic and trade issues, and stop practicing discriminatory and exclusive policies in the name of national security.
