China’s Enhanced National Security “Great Wall”– Supply Chain Security, Red Lines, and Blocking Rules
Recently, the People’s Republic of China (PRC or China) introduced further unprecedented national security measures spanning sanctions, supply chain security, and data security, in addition to blocking rules to protect the internal market from the extraterritorial effects of certain foreign regulatory measures. These developments build on the PRC’s already well-established national security framework, and underscore China’s determination to construct a fortified system designed to shield its supply chains and legal order from foreign influences it deems unjustified. These measures increasingly create potential conflicts of law and pose complex compliance, governance, and commercial challenges for businesses striving to navigate multiple major regulatory regimes worldwide.
