HONG KONG (Reuters) - China’s commerce ministry said on Thursday industrial policies including “Made in China 2025” mainly serve as guidance under market conditions and they are open to all foreign firms. Made in China 2025 is the state-backed industrial policy that has provoked alarm in the West and is core to Washington’s complaints about the country’s technological ambitions.

(Reuters) - The United States said on Wednesday that it signed an agreement with ZTE Corp (000063.SZ) that paves the way for the Chinese tech company to resume operations after a nearly three-month ban on doing business with American suppliers. The ban on China’s No. 2 telecommunications equipment maker will be removed once the company deposits $400 million in an escrow account, the U.S. Commerce Department said in a statement announcing that an escrow agreement had been signed. The ban, which was imposed in April and caused ZTE to cease major operations, has been a source of friction between Washington and Beijing, which are engaged in an escalating trade dispute.

ZTE did not immediately respond to a request for comment, “Today’s announcement marks the beginning of the end lapis buddha head sterling silver cufflinks of this long-running saga,” said Washington attorney Douglas Jacobson, who represents ZTE suppliers, The escrow agreement is part of a $1.4 billion settlement ZTE reached with the Commerce Department last month to regain access to U.S, suppliers, whose components it relies on for its smartphones and networking gear, The ban was imposed after ZTE broke an agreement reached after ZTE pleaded guilty in U.S, federal court last year for illegally shipping U.S, goods and technology to Iran, in violation of U.S, sanctions..

The new settlement includes a $1 billion penalty that ZTE paid to the U.S. Treasury last month and the $400 million in the escrow account that the United States could seize if ZTE violates the latest settlement. The $1 billion penalty is in addition to nearly $900 million ZTE paid last year. Once the ban is lifted, ZTE, which employs around 80,000 people, is expected to restart major operations. The reprieve for ZTE coincides with a new Trump administration threat of 10 percent tariffs on $200 billion of Chinese goods.

In its statement, the Commerce Department said the ZTE action is a law enforcement matter unrelated to broader discussions of trade policy, “The lapis buddha head sterling silver cufflinks ZTE settlement represents the toughest penalty and strictest compliance regime the department has ever imposed in such a case,” the Commerce Department said, The company last week received a limited one-month reprieve from the Commerce Department to maintain existing networks and equipment, Under the new settlement, ZTE was required to change its board and management within 30 days, It also will operate for the next 10 years under a suspended ban, The current ban could have lasted up to seven years..

In addition, the company must hire an outside compliance monitor selected by the Commerce Department. The department missed a 30-day deadline to choose the monitor, but said on Wednesday the timetable was adjusted to conduct “due diligence.”. A controversial monitor appointed to a three-year term by a federal judge in Texas as part of last year’s guilty plea already is in place. ZTE also agreed to allow the U.S. government unfettered site visits to verify U.S. components are being used as claimed by ZTE, and to post calculations of the U.S. components in its products on its website in Chinese and English.

Members of the U.S, Senate last month urged Trump to reconsider the settlement, saying that ZTE posed “a significant threat” to national security, The Senate paved the way for a showdown with Trump over the issue last month, when it passed an annual defense policy bill including an amendment attempting to reverse the deal, The measure could still be killed when Senate and House of Representatives meet in the coming weeks to forge a compromise version of the bill, Chuck Schumer, the Senate’s top Democrat, on Wednesday called the ZTE deal “awful” and said it would lapis buddha head sterling silver cufflinks “undermine our national and economic security.” He said he hopes his Republican colleagues in the House and Senate will “maintain the Senate’s strong language in the defense bill.”..
