expert clifford couldn't and clip it this is not the 1st blacklist issued by the united states what's different this time well i think the intention behind this seems to be more political certainly they've expressed it as a political move but we've already seen weiwei as you mentioned i think this is looking at some very key areas in china particularly surveillance in the comps a lot of chinese economic development in the area of ai for example has technological development in ai has been through the surveillance sector so it's targeting some companies which are very much involved me i sector and beijing already said well we're going to hit back what can we expect yeah that's right they said they said stay tuned to see what they put they can do there's a lot of sectors they still haven't looked at yet they could they could hit the auto sector there's all these kind of areas were they could. could retaliate but we will have to wait and see that the next talks are to resume in 2 days from now
