China to set up system to safeguard technology security
China plans to establish a system to ensure “national security” in technology, state media reported yesterday amid an expanding trade war with the United States which has snared Chinese tech titan Huawei.
The powerful National Development and Reform Commission has been tasked with establishing a list system to “more effectively forestall and defuse national security risks,” the Xinhua news agency said.
Xinhua did not elaborate or state whether the move was linked to the trade war but said “detailed measures will be unveiled in the near future”.
