Officials and experts at the forum criticized the generalization of the concept of national security by some countries and their blatant abuse of export control.

China firmly opposes the United States' generalization of the concept of national security, its abuse of state power and its repeated malicious suppression of Chinese telecom operators in the absence of facts, the Ministry of Commerce said on Friday.

China will accurately review foreign investment that affects or may affect national security, while avoiding generalization actions to better ensure and protect the legitimate rights and interests of foreign investment, the Ministry of Commerce said.
