On June 17, Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesperson Guo Jiakun addressed a question from a Bloomberg reporter at a routine press conference. Guo stated that under pressure from the United States, the Taiwan authorities had included Huawei and Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation (SMIC) on Taiwan's version of the 'Entity List.' China has consistently opposed the US's politicization of technological, economic, and trade issues, as well as its abuse of export controls and other measures to maliciously blockade and suppress China. The blind subservience of the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) authorities to the US will ultimately only harm Taiwan's interests.
