US adds CEIEC and Beijing H&C Technologies to Cuba-related sanctions over alleged military-related supplies

US adds CEIEC and Beijing H&C to Cuba-related sanctions over alleged military-related supplies; no dedicated Chinese reply yet. | China Day chinaday.news

OFAC on 5 November published Cuba-related actions: newly listing Beijing H&C Technologies Co., Ltd. (Beijing Huacheng Haopu) on the SDN List and updating the existing China National Electronics Import & Export Corporation (CEIEC) entry with the Cuba program tag, while determining electronics, manufacturing, marine and technology sectors of Cuba’s economy under related authorities. The State Department the same day said CEIEC and Beijing H&C in 2026 supplied military-related equipment and components to Cuba via arms-procurement firm Sociedad Mercantil Duna; Secretary Rubio said Cuba’s foreign backers supply gear that sustains its armed forces. SCMP (early 6 November HK) reported the two Chinese firms’ alleged military-supply role; AP and others covered the widened Cuba pressure naming China-based suppliers. As of this slot MFA and MOFCOM had no dedicated response to this round. The node landed on 5 November and was deferred at 12:00; with verifiable OFAC/foreign sourcing and no Chinese hard reply, the 14:00 slot logs it under the foreign-only hard rule.
