China’s New Export Control Law: Implications for the Increasingly Challenging U.S.-China Trade Relations
October 17, 2020, China passed the Export Control Law of the People’s Republic of China (ECL) establishing the country’s first comprehensive framework for export restrictions. Focused on restricting the export of items that would pose national security concerns, the ECL mirrors similar regulations imposed by the United States and is set to go into effect after the November elections on December 1, 2020.
Join Chris Monahan, Jacob Harding, and Adeoye Johnson as they breakdown the notable export control restrictions presented by the ECL in comparison with that of the United States.
