A spokesman for the Ministry of Commerce answered a reporter's question on the implementation of the list of unreliable entities. Caixian News Agency, 18 Apr, asked: senior managers of enterprises are prohibited from entering the country in the announcement on the list of unreliable entities issued on 16 February. Are there any specific measures? A: in order to safeguard national sovereignty, security and development interests, in accordance with the relevant laws such as the Anti-Foreign sanctions Law of the people's Republic of China, the Foreign Trade Law of the people's Republic of China and the National Security Law of the people's Republic of China, the working mechanism of the list of unreliable entities, based on the provisions of the list of unreliable entities, has been decided to take effect from February 16, 2023. Ban Lockheed Martin's James Donald Tekrit (James Donald Taiclet), Frank Andrew St. John (Frank Andrew St. John), Jesse Marev (Jesus Malave) Wesley D. Kremer, Agnes Soeder and Chander Chander Nijhon of Raytheon Missile and Defense, as well as other senior executives of the two companies, enter, work, stay and stay in China. Q: the announcement explicitly forbids two enterprises to engage in import and export activities related to China. How should the relevant enterprises in China accurately understand and implement the regulations? A: Lockheed Martin and Raytheon Missile and Defense have been involved in arms sales to Taiwan for a long time. This time, I decided to ban two US companies from engaging in China-related import and export activities, in order to prevent Chinese products from being used in their military business. In the business activities, our enterprise should strengthen the construction of due diligence and compliance system and verify the transaction information. When our enterprise is engaged in export, transit, transshipment, transportation and other activities, it is not allowed to carry out relevant import and export activities if it knows that the actual importers or users are the above two American enterprises. For those who violate the relevant regulations, the relevant departments will be held responsible in accordance with the law.
