US bans imports from 30 more Chinese firms over forced labour in Uyghur regions
The new restrictions, covering a range of products from tomato paste and walnuts to gold and iron ore, are part of the federal government’s effort to prevent goods made with forced labour from entering the United States, the Federal Register posting said.
US Expands Import Ban on Chinese Products Over Forced Labor Concerns
The US government has added around 30 Chinese companies to its import ban list, citing forced labor practices involving Uyghurs in occupied East Turkistan. The banned products include tomato paste, walnuts, gold, and iron ore. These companies join over 100 others already restricted under the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act of 2021.
Most newly listed companies (23) are in agriculture, while others are involved in metal mining and processing. The US claims these restrictions target human rights violations in East Turkistan (Xinjiang), though China denies these allegations. US officials urged companies to ensure ethical supply chains and emphasized their commitment to keeping forced labor products out of US markets.
