“There is reasonable cause to believe, based on specific and articulable facts, have been involved, are involved, or pose a significant risk of being or becoming involved in activities that are contrary to the national security or foreign policy interests of the United States,” said the Department of Commerce. “Sugon has publicly acknowledged a variety of military end uses and end users of its high-performance computers. Wuxi Jiangnan Institute of Computing Technology is owned by the 56th Research Institute of the General Staff of China’s People’s Liberation Army. Its mission is to support China’s military modernization.” said the Department due to its work on the Chinese development of supercomputers. Huawei and ZTE are the new listings to join the Entity List. According to recent reports, the US Consumer Technology Association stated that the trade war would increase the prices of electronic goods across the board.
