According to a report in Britain's “Financial Times” on the 28th, the US government has substantially cut off channels for some US companies to sell semiconductor design software to China. The report quoted people familiar with the matter as saying that affected companies include Cadence, Synopsys, and Siemens EDA. The three companies mentioned above did not respond to requests for comment. The New York Times later reported that the US side also suspended exports to China related to jet engine technology and sales of some chemicals. The US Department of Commerce responded to CNN on the 28th that it is “reviewing strategically important exports to China” and that “under certain circumstances, the Department of Commerce has suspended existing export licenses or imposed additional licensing requirements during the review period.” However, a spokesman for the US Department of Commerce did not specify which companies were involved. Regarding the US side's misuse of export control measures, a spokesman for China's Ministry of Commerce said earlier that the US side's actions seriously damage the legitimate rights and interests of Chinese companies, seriously threaten the safety and stability of the global semiconductor production supply chain, and seriously impact global scientific and technological innovation. Giving others a “stumbling block” won't make you run faster. This practice of using unilateral protectionism to try to contain and isolate other countries will eventually damage America's own industrial competitiveness; the result is only to take a stone and hit itself in the foot. If the US persists in its actions and continues to substantially damage China's interests, China will surely take firm measures to protect its legitimate rights and interests.
