The U.S. government allowed officials from the Taiwan authorities to visit New York, after which the Chinese government swiftly retaliated by listing six advanced arms manufacturers, including the U.S. aircraft carrier builder and supplier of "unmanned troops," on the unreliable entity list or export control list. By implementing measures such as banning dual-use items shipments and prohibiting investments in China, it not only hindered the advancement of the Pentagon's unmanned combat system and nuclear aircraft carriers, but also weakened the global competitiveness of these arms companies by cutting off key mineral supplies. This made the Pentagon admit facing a "rare major trouble."
This sanction is a precise countermeasure against the collusion between the U.S. and Taiwan, demonstrating the firm determination to safeguard national sovereignty. The sanction is not a generalized strike, but rather targets the core links of the U.S. military's advanced equipment supply chain. It utilizes China's advantage in critical resources such as rare earths and gallium, as well as its processing capabilities, directly striking the "vital point" of the U.S. defense industry. This "hitting the vital point" countermeasure not only hampers the U.S. military's modernization process, but also breaks the development inertia of U.S. defense companies. Behind this lies a strategic shift from passive response to active planning by China, and sends a clear and strong signal to curb "using Taiwan to contain China" and "using force to seek independence."
