The House Appropriations Committee unanimously accepted an amendment to an
appropriations bill on Thursday that reinforces sanctions against Chinese
telecommunications company ZTE, a rebuke to President Trump, who
earlier this week tweeted support for the company.
"This amendment would prevent the Commerce Department from renegotiation
of the sanctions it just enacted last month on ZTE," said Rep.
Dutch Ruppersberger (D-Md.), who authored the amendment to the 2019
Commerce, Justice, and Science Appropriations bill.
The Commerce Department slapped heavy sanctions on the Chinese company last
month, banning it from using American components in its parts and
effectively causing the company to shut down its U.S. operations.
The company had broken U.S. trade control laws by selling components to Iran
and North Korea.
On Sunday, Trump did a surprising about-face on his typically tough China
rhetoric, declaring in a tweet, "President Xi of China, and I, are
working together to give massive Chinese phone company, ZTE, a way to get
back into business, fast. Too many jobs in China lost. Commerce Department
has been instructed to get it done!"
The tweet shocked lawmakers in both parties given the support for the
sanctions and Trump's own bellicose rhetoric on China.
Lawmakers say ZTE has been a national security threat, not only breaking
American sanctions, but allegedly stealing intellectual property on behalf
of the Chinese government.
"Supporting this amendment will show that the U.S. government stands
behind the sanctions that it enacts, and will enforce them. It also further
prevents foreign companies beholden to their governments from further
infiltrating our U.S. networks," said Ruppersberger. | f**y
