WASHINGTON: US President Joe Biden on Thursday expanded a blacklist of Chinese firms that are off-limits to American investors over their links to Beijing s military-industrial complex, in a sign of Washington s continued pressure campaign against China.
Former President Donald Trump had prohibited Americans from buying stakes in 31 Chinese companies that were deemed to be supplying or supporting China s military and security apparatus, and Biden s move expands the blacklist to 59.
The latest batch of sanctions target companies involved in Chinese surveillance technology used to facilitate repression or serious human rights abuses, which undermine the security or democratic values of the United States and our allies, according to a White House statement.
