China places 20 Japanese entities on export control list for dual-use items
China has placed 20 Japanese firms, including subsidiaries of Mitsubishi and Fujitsu, under export controls for dual-use items. Beijing cited Japan's "remilitarisation" and nuclear ambitions as reasons for this move, which restricts sales without prior approval. The commerce ministry stated this action targets specific entities and dual-use goods, aiming not to disrupt normal trade. An additional 20 entities are on a watchlist for potential end-use verification.
