Woofun AI reports that the Chinese Ministry of Commerce has added 40 Japanese entities to its export control and watch lists. The "Control List" includes 20 organizations, such as the Japan Defense Research Institute and Mitsubishi Electric Defense and Space Systems Corporation, facing a complete ban on Chinese dual-use item exports. Another 20 entities, including Mitsui E&S Holdings, are placed on the "Watch List," subjecting their export applications to strict end-use reviews with military-related requests rejected. A ministry spokesperson stated these measures target specific entities to safeguard national security and counter Japan's "remilitarization," asserting no impact on normal Sino-Japanese trade.
