Summary
China has firmly opposed the U.S. Pentagon's decision to add several prominent Chinese companies — including BYD, Alibaba, and Baidu — to its list of military-linked firms. The designation prevents these companies from securing U.S. defense contracts. A Chinese Ministry of Commerce spokesperson stated the move ignores the consensus reached during the recent Trump-Xi summit in Beijing. The affected companies have previously denied any basis for their inclusion on the list.
