China on Monday accused the United States of undermining the two countries’ preliminary trade agreement after the U.S. issued an industry warning against using Chinese chips.
Beijing has “demanded” that the Trump administration “correct its mistakes,” calling the guidance from the U.S. Commerce Department “discriminatory” and “market distorting.”
“China urges the U.S. to immediately correct its wrong practices and stop discriminatory measures against China,” a spokesperson for China’s Ministry of Commerce told a reporter, according to a Google translation.
“If the U.S. insists on its own way and continues to substantially damage China’s interests, China will take resolute measures to safeguard its legitimate rights and interests,” the spokesperson said.
