In order to weaken Russian military industry and strategic industries, the United States and its partners have implemented extensive restrictions on exporting semiconductor, aircraft parts, petroleum and natural gas industrial equipment, and other products. They believe that for China, these measures are more targeted and can restrict China ’s technologies that have obtained military development and scientific progress.

U.S. executives warn that extensive export control may cause severe damage to global business, and it will also promote China's implementation restrictions on some key products supplied to the United States. In the long run, the widespread use of control measures may promote foreign customers to find other sources of supply, thereby weakening the leading position and market dominance of the United States. Martin Jason, a senior researcher at the Institute of International Economic Research Institute of the US Think Tank, warned that many countries that have a deep trade relationship with China may resist the United States' efforts to implement export control in China.
