중국, 미중 갈등 속 수출관리법안 통과…韓기업도 불똥 우려<br /><br />Amid continuing tensions between Washington and Beijing, China has passed a new law restricting senstive exports...allowing the government to act against countries that abuse export controls.<br />Our Bae Eun-ji has the details.<br />The clash between China and the U.S. continues as Beijing has come up with a framework to better fight back against Washington.<br />The nation passed a law to restrict exports allowing it to take countermeasures if any country or region abuses its export controls.<br />According to the country's state media Xinhua news, the law was made for the purpose of "safeguarding national security and interests”.<br />This law, passed last Saturday by the country's top legislative body, will take effect starting December 1st.<br />The new law allows tight controls on the export of military and nuclear products... as well as other goods, technologies, and relevant data.<br />Violation of this law will lead to fines of as much as 746-thousand U.S. dollars, and withdrawal of export licenses.<br />This comes as tensions between Washington and Beijing rise as the U.S. had imposed earlier sanctions on Chinese giant tech firms...including Huawei and ByteDance.<br />While China's existing control list is much narrower than the one used by the U.S., the list could be further expanded to more products and technologies.<br />In August, China’s commerce ministry made an amendment that banned or restricted export for technologies such as drones.<br />Even though the current export-control law is mainly aimed towards the U.S., there are concerns that it could cause a so-called "secondary sanction",... posing a threat to companies in other countries as well.<br />Bae Eun-ji, Arirang News.<br />
