EXIT WARNING! The United States announced: sanctions on these Chinese entities, involving tablet presses, molds...

Xiao Bian learned that on May 31, the United States imposed sanctions on China (entities and individuals) and Mexican entities in the fentanyl operation.

Last Tuesday, the United States imposed sanctions on seven entities and six individuals, including those based in China, and one business and three individuals based in Mexico, accusing the targets of involvement in the sale of tablet presses and other equipment used to print counterfeit trademarks such as Xanax and M30 on illegally produced tablets, which often contain fentanyl and are shipped to the United States.

According to a report released this month by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), from 2016 to 2021,Drug overdose fatalities involving the synthetic opioid fentanyl have more than tripled in the United States.
The Biden administration says fentanyl is 50 times stronger than heroin and 100 times stronger than morphine, and is increasingly being mixed with other illicit drugs, often with deadly consequences. With more than 100,000 drug-related overdose deaths in the United States in 2021, attempts are being made to stop the importation of this deadly drug.
In response, the Chinese spokesman stressed,"The pretext for the US to impose the sanctions is that these Chinese entities and individuals sell tablet presses, molds and other equipment to the United States and Mexico.
As we all know, tablet presses and molds are common commodities, have legitimate uses, and are widely used in normal industrial production. Moreover, according to international practice and common practice, it is the basic responsibility of importing enterprises and the legal obligation of the government of the importing country to ensure that international goods are not used for illegal purposes.
The drug epidemic in the United States is rooted in the United States itself. The U.S. population accounts for only 5% of the global population, but it consumes 80% of the world's opioids. So far, there is no permanent control of fentanyl, but it is busy pushing the blame. China will continue to take necessary measures to safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of Chinese enterprises and individuals."
In any case, if the United States really makes a big fuss about this matter, it can be guessed that the enterprises currently subject to sanctions are still only a small part at the beginning, and the scope of sanctions may be expanded later (enterprises, product categories, etc.). Chinese exporters selling tablet presses, moulds and other equipment are bound to be seriously affected.
