China in the Crosshairs: An Overview of the U.S. Approach to Mitigating National Security Concerns

June 23, 2020 • Webinar

---

In the past several years, the U.S. government has issued a series of sweeping Executive Orders, policy announcements, and other regulatory and enforcement actions as part of a multi-pronged approach to protect U.S. national interests against the perceived challenges a rising China presents. To help industry contextualize these actions within the broader framework of the U.S. approach to China, and to understand the emerging trends, our C&M International trade professionals and C&M International Trade and Government Contracts attorneys will provide commentary and insight across a series of topics, including:

• Recent changes to national security reviews by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the U.S. (CFIUS) targeting capital from China;
• The new EAR foreign-direct product rule aimed at Huawei and its affiliates, and the Military End user / End Use Rule;
• Entity List additions; 
• Tariffs and Trade Remedies developments; 
• Establishing the new Team Telecom; 
• Securing U.S. Bulk Power Systems;
• FAR Supply Chain restrictions and implementation plans;
• The U.S. Department of State’s announcement on the revocation of Hong Kong’s trade status; and
• Criminal prosecution of sanctions violations and trade secret theft.
