China adds 11 U.S. firms to unreliable entity list​

BEIJING, April 4 (Xinhua) -- China has added 11 U.S. firms, including Skydio and BRINC Drones, to its unreliable entity list, the country's commerce ministry announced on Friday.

These companies, in disregard of strong opposition from China, have undertaken so-called military technology cooperation with Taiwan, seriously undermining China's national sovereignty, security and development interests, a spokesperson for the Ministry of Commerce said in a statement.

China holds the 11 firms accountable for their unlawful activities, in accordance with relevant laws and regulations, according to the statement.

China always handles issues related to its unreliable entity list prudently, and only targets the very few foreign entities that undermine China's national security, the spokesperson said.

"There is nothing to worry about for honest and law-abiding foreign entities," said the spokesperson.

The Chinese government, as always, welcomes companies from all countries to invest and operate in China, and is committed to providing a stable, fair and predictable business environment for foreign enterprises that operate in accordance with laws and regulations, said the spokesperson.

Is Skydio going to be importing drone motors from a third party country now?

This makes me optimistic that China will not just stand aside while the U.S. destroys Iran.

US lobbing a few bombs will not destroy Iran. Unless it's regime is so weak from within that it will get a color revolution just cause it was bombed.

Iran with its scientific and tech base along with a large population and landmass has all the power to not only withstand US bombs but also lob a few of its own missiles and drones.

Yeah you're fucked in the head if you think that Chinese scientists would not only approve funding for humanized pigs for reproductive purposes, already an almost zero probability, but allow them to be killed for food afterwards, despite the obvious biosafety risks and ethical considerations.

You must think Chinese scientists are not only morons but unironically as low ethics as Americans accuse Chinese of being, both in biosafety and in animal handling ethics.

RAND recommends that Lai Qingde and his gang :

- increase its defense budget (already higher in percentage than that of all its neighbors).
- go into "war economy" mode by "strengthening its resilience", while admitting that this exercise is constrained by the parliamentary majority, which does not want war.
- "get rid of [democratic] limits by brute force if necessary". (President Lai will have to overcome these limits, either by creating coalitions or by resorting to brute force).
As I explained in recent interviews, the South Korean scenario of a self-inflicted coup by the ruling party to get rid of the opposition is quite plausible in Taiwan, and today officially recommended in high places by Washington.

The KMT will have to fight a second civil war.

The DPP would be very stupid to attempt something like that. The KMT will almost certainly band with the CPC in this civil war. The irony would not be lost on anyone for the KMT and the CPC to form the 3rd United Front to preserve Chinese territorial integrity, and the DPP has no prospect of victory.

China suspends poultry meat, sorghum imports from certain U.S. firms​

BEIJING, April 4 (Xinhua) -- China's General Administration of Customs (GAC) said on Friday that it has decided to suspend the exports of poultry meat from some U.S. firms to China as well as suspend the qualifications of some U.S. firms to export certain products to China.

Effective April 4, China will suspend the qualification of C&D (USA) Inc. to export sorghum to China. It will also suspend the qualifications of three other U.S. firms, namely American Proteins, Inc., Mountaire Farms of Delaware, Inc. and Darling Ingredients Inc., to export poultry meat and bone meal to China, the GAC said.

The decision came after Chinese customs detected excessive levels of zearalenone and mold in imported U.S. sorghum, and salmonella in imported U.S. poultry meat and bone meal, the GAC said in a statement, adding that the suspension aims to protect the health of Chinese consumers and the safety of animal husbandry sector in China.

In a separate announcement, the GAC also announced the immediate suspension of poultry meat imports from the two U.S. companies of Mountaire Farms of Delaware, Inc. and Coastal Processing, LLC.

The GAC said that this suspension follows the Chinese customs' detection on several occasions of the prohibited drug furacillin in imported U.S. chicken products and that the suspension decision is to protect the health and safety of consumers.

An official with the GAC said that the suspension of poultry meat import from the two U.S. companies would help prevent food safety risks from the source, and the decision was made in accordance with relevant Chinese laws and regulations and international standards.

"The above measures taken by the General Administration of Customs are necessary precautions to ensure food safety, and they are reasonable and in line with international norms," the official said.

Man, China is going full send lol

Orange man and his nazi friends better watch out. Xi has prepared China well enough after the first trade war. After 7 years of further development with Xi at helm, China is at incomparable stronger position of strength than last time

As a bonus, this fulfills one of the requirements of becoming the undisputed equal superpower with the previous hegemon. The moment you can publicly stand up and challenge it directly, and trade blows without losing, it means the whole world will then recognize your status

It's like the Beijing Olympics and it's soft power impact. Now though, it will all be hard power demonstration
