China News Service, April 30, in response to the "United States Federal Communications Commission (FCC) said that the operation of four state-owned telecommunications operators, including China Unicom and China Telecom, will face US review" related issues, Ministry of Commerce spokesman Gao Feng It was pointed out on the 30th that it urged the United States to stop the misuse of the concept of national security and the use of national power to suppress the lawful operation of enterprises within the United States.
The Ministry of Commerce held a regular press conference on the 30th. Some reporters asked questions. The US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) said on April 24 that the operation of four state-owned telecom operators, including China Unicom and China Telecom, will face US review. These state-owned enterprises need to provide the US with the reason that they should not withdraw their permission to operate in the US. What's the response of the Ministry of Commerce?
Gao Feng pointed out that China is seriously concerned about the US statement. This move by the United States is discrimination against Chinese state-owned enterprises, which will not only affect Chinese companies' investment in the United States, but will also damage the confidence of companies in other countries in the US investment environment.
Gao Feng emphasized that we urge the United States to stop the misuse of national security concepts and use national power to suppress the lawful operation of enterprises in the United States. Do not treat enterprises differently with social systems and ownership. Investing in the United States provides an open, fair and non-discriminatory business environment.
