China continues to fuel the trade war with the USA and is targeting the US drone industry. Drone companies are no longer to receive components.

The Chinese Ministry of Commerce (Ministry of Commerce – MOFCOM) has placed a total of eleven US drone companies on the Unreliable Entity List (UEL), a blacklist of companies with which no import and export relationships may exist. This was announced by MOFCOM, as reported by the Chinese state media Global Times on Friday. The decision could have a major impact on drone manufacturing in the USA, which relies on imports of Chinese components and raw materials.
