US attempts to colonize global business continue

Reportedly, the United States administration is considering extending its attacks on Chinese companies by blacklisting China's largest surveillance equipment manufacturer Hikvision.

If so, Hikvision - which has about 20 percent of the global market share and has been the leading player in the industry for seven consecutive years - will become the fourth Chinese company Washington has targeted after the telecommunications companies ZTE and Huawei, and drone maker DJI.

Unlike the previous three companies, which the US administration has justified the attacks on with the excuse it is protecting national security, the premise for setting its sights on Hikvision, which serves customers in more than 150 countries, including the US, is the familiar discrediting of China's policy toward the Uygurs in the Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region.
