The Export Control List

China's Ministry of Commerce added 14 EU entities to its export control list on July 24, citing potential risks of their use for sanctions violations related to Russia. The list includes companies from Germany, France, Italy, and other EU states, restricting the export of dual-use goods and technologies. This is the first time China has targeted EU entities in such a manner, according to Reuters.

EU Response

The European Commission expressed concern over the move, stating it would assess the impact on EU companies. The EU has previously criticized China for not doing enough to prevent the circumvention of Russia-related sanctions. The new restrictions could escalate trade tensions between Brussels and Beijing.
