China announced on Wednesday a raft of measures in response to restrictions imposed on Chinese companies by the United States, including placing six US entities on its countermeasure list, imposing tighter export controls on drones and related technologies, and launching a national security review into imported printers and copiers.

中国8月5日宣布了一系列措施，以回应美国对中国企业施加的限制，包括将六家美国实体列入反制清单、对无人机及相关技术实施更严格的出口管制，并对进口打印和复印设备启动国家安全审查。

A Ministry of Commerce spokesperson said in a statement that the countermeasures were a necessary response to Washington's continued expansion of restrictions under the pretext of national security. China urges the US to immediately withdraw relevant restrictions, stop its wrongful actions and return to the right track of resolving differences through friendly consultation and cooperation, the statement added.
商务部发言人在一份声明中表示，这些反制措施是针对美方以国家安全为由不断扩大限制的必要回应。声明还称，中方敦促美方立即撤销相关限制措施，停止错误做法，回到通过友好协商与合作解决分歧的正确轨道上来。

The spokesperson warned that China would take more countermeasures if the US insists on introducing new restrictions targeting Chinese entities.
发言人警告说，如果美方坚持针对中国企业出台新的限制措施，中方将采取更多反制举措。

Since the meeting between the two heads of state in Busan, South Korea, last year, the US Federal Communications Commission has repeatedly introduced restrictive measures targeting Chinese companies despite Beijing's firm opposition and calls from business communities in both countries for cooperation, the spokesperson said.
发言人表示，自去年两国元首在韩国釜山会晤以来，美国联邦通信委员会不顾中方的坚决反对以及两国商界对合作的呼吁，多次出台针对中国企业的限制措施。

The US has continued to overstretch the concept of national security, with its measures covering areas including telecommunications operators, testing laboratories, drones, consumer routers and submarine cables, and it has recently imposed import curbs on advanced robotics equipment and power inverters.
美方持续泛化国家安全概念，限制措施涵盖电信运营商、检测实验室、无人机、消费级路由器和海底光缆等领域，并于近期对先进机器人设备和电力逆变器实施了进口限制。

To safeguard China's national security and interests, the ministry said that export controls on drone-related dual-use items destined for the US will be tightened, requiring case-by-case reviews for exports of drones, key components and related technologies, which will not be eligible for license facilitation measures, effective immediately.
为维护国家安全和利益，商务部表示，对美出口的无人机相关两用物项将实施更严格的出口管制，对无人机、关键部件及相关技术的出口实施逐案审查，不适用许可便利化措施，即日生效。

As six US entities have assisted and supported illegal US sanctions related to the Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region, they will be prohibited from engaging in relevant transactions, cooperation and other activities with organizations and individuals in China, effective immediately, the ministry said.
商务部表示，由于六家美国实体协助和支持了美国非法涉疆制裁，将禁止其与中国境内组织和个人进行相关交易、合作及其他活动，即日生效。

Also on Wednesday, the National Certification and Accreditation Administration said it would suspend, with immediate effect, follow-up factory inspections conducted by US certification agencies on behalf of designated China Compulsory Certification bodies.
同一天，国家认证认可监督管理委员会表示，将暂停美国认证机构受指定中国强制性产品认证机构委托开展的后续工厂检查，即日生效。

The ministry spokesperson said China's countermeasures were "overall restrained" and reflected its desire to preserve the hard-won stability of China-US economic and trade relations.
商务部发言人表示，中方的反制措施“总体上是克制的”，反映了中方维护来之不易的中美经贸关系稳定局面的意愿。

Experts noted that the countermeasures are aimed at protecting China's legitimate interests while avoiding further escalation of trade tensions. They emphasized that dialogue and rules-based cooperation remain essential for maintaining stability in global supply chains.
专家指出，这些反制措施旨在保护中国的合法权益，同时避免贸易紧张局势进一步升级。他们强调，对话和基于规则的合作对于维护全球供应链稳定仍然至关重要。

John Quelch, executive vice-chancellor and a distinguished professor of social science at Duke Kunshan University in Jiangsu province, said a stable international trading system benefits not only exporters and investors, but also consumers and workers worldwide.
昆山杜克大学执行副校长、杰出社会科学教授约翰·奎尔奇表示，稳定的国际贸易体系不仅惠及出口商和投资者，也惠及全球消费者和劳动者。

The ministry also announced on Wednesday the launch of a national security investigation into imported office equipment with printing and copying functions that are equipped with foreign system software, marking China's first such probe under its foreign trade law.
商务部8月5日还宣布，对进口的配备外国系统软件的具有打印、复印功能的办公设备启动国家安全调查，这是中国首次依据对外贸易法开展此类调查。

Shi Xiaoli, a professor of international economic law at China University of Political Science and Law in Beijing, said the move shows China's efforts to build a systematic and institutional framework to address trade-related risks.
中国政法大学国际经济法教授史晓丽表示，此举显示了中国在构建系统性、制度性框架以应对贸易相关风险方面的努力。
