China hits back at US sanctions on tech giants, restricting its exports to American defense firms

China sanctioned 10 U.S. military-related companies, restricting exports of dual-use items in response to U.S. sanctions on Chinese tech firms. The move follows the U.S. Defense Department adding Chinese companies like Alibaba and Baidu to a military-linked list, which China claims violates a consensus reached between Xi Jinping and Donald Trump.
