Trump said this weekend that his administration is considering action against other Chinese tech companies on national security grounds.
Chinese state media has hit out at President Donald Trump's administration for its campaign against Beijing-backed technology companies. It threatened retaliation, days after the president said he was looking into the possibilities of banning giant e-commerce firm Alibaba from the U.S. market.
Alibaba—with its $72 billion revenue this year—could be next to join ByteDance and Huawei on the Trump target list. The administration and the GOP are considering how the U.S. can decouple with China amid a nadir in bilateral relations and recognition that Beijing poses the next great strategic threat to American hegemony.
The administration is currently pushing for Chinese startup ByteDance to sell its TikTok app operations, citing national security concerns over the app's collection of data belonging to American users. Asked Saturday if the U.S. was planning action against other Chinese firms like Alibaba, the president replied:"Well, we're looking at other things, yes."
The TikTok furor comes amid an ongoing U.S. push to marginalize tech giant Huawei from nascent 5G networks in allied nations. This is one of the companies that Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has branded"Trojan horses" for the Chinese Communist Party, used to gain access to American markets, infrastructure and user data.newspaper—owned by the CCP's propaganda department—published an editorial condemning what it called U.S."stick-ups" of Chinese businesses.
