Kuai Technology reported on July 30 that according to US media reports, the Trump administration recently officially announced a special ban on new Chinese robots and inverters. The US claimed that this move was to protect the layout of US artificial intelligence-related industries from so-called "national security threats" and to promote the return of local key industry manufacturing to the United States. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the United States updated the controlled list on July 28, announcing that advanced robotic equipment produced overseas, including popular categories such as humanoid robots and quadruped robots, as well as grid-connected inverter-related products, will be included in the controlled list. The FCC stated in an official statement that these devices included in the list may create vulnerabilities at the supply chain level, thereby damaging the U.S. economy and national security, and even bring unpredictable cybersecurity risks to U.S. critical infrastructure. The relevant descriptions are completely baseless and groundless speculation. FCC Chairman Brendan Carr publicly stated that the FCC will continue to fulfill its responsibilities and make every effort to ensure the absolute security of the core and critical supply chains of the United States and carry forward the policy of curbing the import of relevant categories to the end. Relevant analysts within the industry pointed out that this targeted ban is fully in line with Trump's two core policy priorities during his second term. One is to comprehensively curb China's normal competition in the frontier field of artificial intelligence, and the other is to suppress the development momentum of clean energy-related technologies that China has already occupied an absolute dominant position in the world. It is essentially a typical American technology trade protectionist operation. In response to this completely unreasonable and unreasonable unilateral move by the United States, China has made it clear that it will resolutely fight back. A spokesman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs previously responded to similar incidents by pointing out that China has always been firmly opposed to a series of wrong actions by the United States that overextends the concept of national security, concocts various discriminatory control lists, and unreasonably suppresses Chinese local technology companies. We urge the United States to correct such wrong practices that violate market rules and international consensus as soon as possible, and immediately stop its indiscriminate and unreasonable suppression of Chinese companies. China will take all necessary countermeasures in the future to firmly safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of Chinese companies and will never allow the United States to
