US government agency to procure and prohibit use of 5 Chinese high-tech products 8/8/9: 16
The US Trump administration has been a government agency since 13th of this month based on the Defense Authority Act that was established last year to prevent the leakage of confidential information. Announced that procurement is prohibited.
In August last year, the American Trump administration enacted a defense authority law that included provisions to exclude products from high-tech companies in China, such as major communications equipment Huawei, from the government agency, saying that it was to prevent the leakage of confidential information. It was.
On the 7th, based on this law, the US government announced that it would ban the procurement and use of communication equipment and surveillance cameras from five Chinese companies at the government agency from 13th of this month.
In addition to Huawei, ZTE, a major communications equipment manufacturer, Hikvision and Darfa Technology, a surveillance camera manufacturer, and Hitera, a wireless equipment manufacturer, were included in the US government since August next year. Transactions with any company in the world that uses the product are also prohibited.
In May, the Trump administration is tightening up on Chinese high-tech companies by announcing measures that prohibit US companies from selling electronic components to Huawei without government approval.
As trade disputes between the United States and China intensify, it seems that the United States is aiming to intensify pressure on China and approach compromises through negotiations.
