The countermeasures taken by China have worked, and the United States has made substantial concessions! The United States has revoked the relevant restrictions! On October 19, according to a report from the "Straits Times," the U.S.-based electronics distributor Arrow Electronics stated that the U.S. government is revoking the trade restrictions previously imposed on its subsidiaries in China. Arrow Electronics said that the U.S. Department of Commerce has notified them that they will issue a decision to revoke the restrictions and send an official letter on Friday, temporarily lifting the relevant restrictions.

Previously, the U.S. claimed that 15 Chinese companies, including Arrow (China) Electronics Trading and Arrow Electronics (Hong Kong) Limited, were added to the export control entity list for allegedly assisting Iran-backed armed groups such as Hamas and the Houthis to purchase U.S. drone electronic components. Obviously, the U.S. revoking these restrictions indicates what? It indicates that our countermeasures against the U.S. have been effective.

In fact, from recent statements by the U.S., it is clear that the U.S. is intentionally easing relations with China. Whether it is Trump's statement that continuing to raise tariffs is unsustainable and that he will meet with China during the APEC Summit in South Korea, or Benes' phone call with us indicating that tensions between the U.S. and China have eased, and both sides expect to hold meetings in Malaysia to pave the way for high-level U.S.-China meetings, all of this shows that the U.S. now intends to make some concessions and send us a signal.

This signal means that before the U.S.-China meeting, the tension between the two sides will not escalate. Obviously, this also indicates that the U.S. places great importance on the meeting with us and hopes to facilitate the meeting. From our perspective, this is certainly a positive signal. However, there is no doubt that the differences between the U.S. and China remain very significant. Whether the U.S.-China negotiations will make significant progress depends on the sincerity of the U.S.!
