US extends sanctions on firms for exports to China
Budrigannews.com – The government announced on Thursday that the U.S. Commerce Department will continue to deny export privileges to three U.S.-based businesses, claiming that the businesses had illegally exported satellite, rocket, and defense technology to China.
The expansion came after new worries about Mercury Assembling Inc, Fast Cut LLC and U.S. Model Inc, which the Trade Division said in a June 7 request had sent specialized drawings and plans from U.S. clients to producers in China to three dimensional print satellite, rocket and safeguard related models without approval.
It was not possible to get in touch with the businesses, which all have the same address in Wilmington, North Carolina.
The Commerce Department has discovered additional U.S. businesses that collaborated with the firms on the illegal export to China of firearm component and space technology details since June.

It is believed that such exports threaten U.S. security. The new request denies the organizations’ commodity honors for an additional 180 days, and pulls out to different organizations to try not to work with them.
The businesses that had signed contracts with the North Carolina businesses were not identified by the department. In any case, as per the division’s June request, a U.S. aviation and worldwide protection innovation organization told the division in February 2020 of an outsider provider’s unapproved product of controlled satellite innovation.
According to the department’s investigation, Quicksilver received an order for satellite components for the aerospace company’s prototype space satellite in July 2017. Quicksilver outsourced 3-D printing by sending technical drawings and blueprints to China for component production.
According to the department, Quicksilver was also responsible for a violation involving a third U.S. company, an advanced science and engineering company with contracts with the Department of Defense.
According to the Commerce Department’s order from December, a person based in China who used the @rapidcut.com email address may have broken the June order by providing customers with instructions on how to complete and fulfill pending orders, according to the order.
The Commerce Department was informed that the individual was employed by a Chinese manufacturer that pays Rapid Cut commissions on sales, according to the December order, which was posted for publication in the Federal Register on Thursday.
