China’s Commerce Minister, Wang Wentao, expressed “serious concerns” on Tuesday in a call with U.S. Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo regarding U.S. semiconductor policies and restrictions on Chinese connected vehicles. Wang urged the U.S. to lift sanctions on Chinese companies, specifically highlighting the need to improve the business environment for Chinese firms operating in the U.S.

During the conversation, Wang stressed the importance of defining clear national security boundaries within trade policy, aiming to stabilize global supply chains and strengthen bilateral cooperation.
