China imposes export controls on 14 EU entities in retaliation for Russia-related sanctions

China imposed export restrictions on 14 EU entities, banning them from receiving dual-use items from China.

Foreign companies are also barred from supplying these entities with dual-use products made in China.

The move retaliates against the EU's sanctions on 14 Chinese and Hong Kong entities accused of supplying dual-use goods to Russia.

Dual-use items have both civilian and military applications and are subject to strict export controls.
