Modified: Restrictions on Exports in the History of U.S. Economic Sanctions Imposed against China

Note: the date of this economic sanction is: NOVEMBER 23, 1983

On November 23, 1983, China was reassigned to export Country Group V. Controls on some exports to China still remain more stringent than to other group V countries. As it currently stands, there are “certain commodities, data, and end-uses that may require extended review or denial. Of particular concern are exports that would make a direct and significant contribution to nuclear weapons and their delivery systems, electronic and anti-submarine warfare, intelligence gathering, power projection, and air superiority. Licenses may be approved even when the end-user or end-use [is] military. Commodities or data may be approved for export even though they may contribute to Chinese military development [21].”

Occasion(s) Detailed
