Moolenaar: American Companies & Governments Should Cut Ties With New Pentagon-Listed Chinese Military Companies

Today, the Pentagon announced additions to its list of known Chinese military companies (1260H List). The additions include numerous Chinese companies Select Committee on China Chairman John Moolenaar and other congressional leaders have requested be added to the list.

“This updated list of Chinese military companies is a warning to American businesses, all levels of government, and the American people. These Chinese companies are working with the Chinese military against our national interests. Any of them that are publicly traded on U.S. exchanges should be immediately delisted and their products should be removed from supply chains our country depends on. American companies must stop doing business with these threats to our national security, otherwise they are enabling China’s military ascendance. Additionally, thanks to the bipartisan BIOSECURE Act that was signed into law in December, Americans’ medical data will be protected from BGI and Wuxi Apptec, two malicious Chinese biotech companies that enable the PLA’s biological experimentation,” said Moolenaar.

The new additions to the list include:

Alibaba Group Holding Limited, Baidu, Inc., BOE Technology Group Co., Ltd., BYD Company Limited, CALB Group Co., Ltd. EVE Energy Co., Ltd. Hangzhou Yushu Technology Co., Ltd. (Unitree), JA Solar Technology Co., Ltd. NIO, Inc., Novogene Company Limited, RoboSense Technology Co., Ltd. Tianma Microelectronics Co., Ltd., TP-Link Technologies Co., Ltd., Trina Solar Co., Ltd., WuXi AppTec Co., Ltd., Zhongji Innolight Co., Ltd.

In December, Moolenaar and other members of Congress sent a letter requesting BOE, RoboSense, Tianma, Unitree, Wuxi Apptec, and other companies be added to the 1260H List.
