China warns U.S. of 'all necessary measures' over Huawei rules

The Hindu  

China’s commerce ministry says it will take “all necessary measures” in response to new U.S. restrictions on Chinese tech giant Huawei’ s ability to use American technology, calling the measures an abuse of state power and a violation of market principles. An unidentified spokesperson in a statement on the ministry’s website said the regulations also threatened the security of the “global industrial and supply chain.” "The U.S. uses state power, under the so-called excuse of national security, and abuses export control measures to continuously oppress and contain specific enterprises of other countries,” the statement read. Under the new rules, foreign semiconductor makers who use American technology must obtain a U.S. license to ship Huawei-designed semiconductors to the Chinese company. U.S. Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross said on Friday that Washington wants to prevent Huawei from evading sanctions imposed earlier on its use of American technology to design and produce semiconductors abroad.
