United States has entered the "Anti-China Week", in addition to encircling Chinese pharmaceutical companies, banning DJI drones, and also intending to block cross-strait reunification. How did China respond to this?
On September 9, after a six-week summer recess, the United States Congress resumed that day. The first thing the Federal House of Representatives, which has just reconvened, did was to arrange an intensive China-related agenda and prepare to vote on more than 20 China-related bills. On the same day that the session resumed, the United States House of Representatives voted 306 to 81 to pass the Biosecurity Act, which prohibits Chinese biotech companies from doing business in United States on so-called "national security" grounds. It is understood that the "Biosecurity Act" was first proposed by the United States in January this year, and the US side said at that time that the bill was intended to ensure that "foreign hostile biotechnology companies cannot obtain United States taxpayers' money." In March, a United States Senate committee approved the draft bill by an 11-1 vote. In June, the Biosecurity Act was not included in the United States' National Defense Authorization Act of 2025 (NDAA) and was then shelved until the United States House of Representatives passed the bill.
In response to this move by the United States, at the regular press conference of the Chinese Foreign Ministry on the 10th, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning responded and stressed that China firmly opposes the deliberation and adoption of relevant bills by the House of Representatives of the United States, and China will continue to firmly safeguard the legitimate and legitimate rights and interests of its own enterprises, and we also support Chinese enterprises in safeguarding their own rights and interests in accordance with the law. At the same time, affected Chinese companies have denied posing a threat to United States national security and have spoken out strongly against such preconceived and unjustified accusations without due process.
In addition to containing Chinese pharmaceutical companies, the United States House of Representatives also passed another bill on the 9th, which is to prohibit the new drones produced and sold by Chinese drone manufacturer DJI from running on United States communication infrastructure to prevent DJI drones from being sold in the United States market. Representative Stefanic, Republican of United States, claimed that the bill against DJI aims to "protect the data and critical infrastructure of United States" and that "Congress must use all the means at our disposal to stop China's 'monopoly control of the drone market.'" While the bill will not prevent existing DJI drones from being used within the United States, through legislative action, the United States Congress will ensure that DJI's new drones cannot be imported and sold in the United States. However, the bill against DJI has not yet been approved by the United States Senate. That is, the bill cannot yet take effect.
It is undeniable that United States politicians have been making unwarranted difficulties with Chinese drones for several years. As early as 2017, the Pentagon of United States banned the US military from using DJI drone products on the grounds of so-called "data security risks" and began year-long sanctions against it. Later, the United States Department of Commerce announced that a number of Chinese companies, including DJI, would be included in the "Entity List" of export controls on the grounds of "violating United States national security." The US abuses export control measures to maliciously block and suppress Chinese companies out of the need to maintain its hegemony in science and technology, which not only harms the legitimate rights and interests of Chinese companies, but also affects the interests of United States enterprises.
In addition, the US side has not stopped its actions on Taiwan-related issues, and the United States House of Representatives also passed the "Taiwan Conflict Deterrence Act" on the 9th, which can be regarded as United States systematically anticipating and conceiving the scenarios for the possible outbreak of conflicts in the Taiwan region and the conditions and methods for United States intervention, providing a "legal basis" and action guidelines for United States to deeply intervene in the Taiwan Strait issue, and even has the nature and harm of the "War Mobilization Law". To put it simply, the United States is making some "practical" preparations to block cross-strait reunification, and wants to "help Taiwan" in the end of United States and "have a law to follow." In addition, the bill requires that if the United States determines that Chinese mainland "poses a threat" to Taiwan, it will report and restrict the financial activities of mainland-related personnel. The above-mentioned moves of the US side have once again proved that the so-called commitments to China repeatedly reiterated by the top level of the United States government have no credibility at all.
