thediplomat.com/2024/08/more-chinese-companies-sanctioned-by-the-us-over-russia-trade/
Quick Glance: US Sanctions Target More Chinese Companies
- On August 23, the US added 42 Chinese and Hong Kong companies to its Entity List for violating regulations that restrict dual-use technology exports to Russia.
