The US Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) has added 26 entities and 3 addresses to its Entity List, including 16 from mainland China and 3 in Hong Kong. Among the affected companies are subsidiaries of global electronics distributor Arrow, alongside various technology and trading firms.
China has strongly condemned the move, stating that the US is misusing national security claims and abusing export controls, which undermines global supply chain stability and violates international norms. Chinese officials emphasized that such actions harm legitimate rights and disrupt the electronics component supply chain, potentially leading to price increases and shortages. They urged the US to cease politicizing trade and technology issues, vowing to protect Chinese enterprises’ interests.
