Sheikh Qassem: Our supporters make up more than half of Lebanon's population, and all of these people are united under the banner of protecting Lebanon, its Resistance, its people, and its integrity.
Sheikh Qassem: There will be no phased handing in of our arms. [The Israelis] must first enact the agreement before we start talking about a defensive strategy.
Sheikh Qassem: Be brave in the face of foreign pressures, and we will be by your side in this stance.
Sheikh Qassem: Stripping us of our arms is like stripping us of our very soul, and this will prompt us to show them our might.
Sheikh Qassem: We will not abandon our arms, for they gave us dignity; we will not abandon our arms, for they protect us against our enemy.
Sheikh Qassem: The US efforts we are seeing are aimed at sabotaging Lebanon and constitute a call for sedition.
Sheikh Qassem: If you truly want to establish sovereignty and work for Lebanon’s interests, then stop the aggression.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States, which is meddling in Lebanon, is not trustworthy but rather poses a danger to it.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States is preventing the weapons that protect the homeland.

The US government plans to impose new restrictions on over 30 Chinese businesses this week, including semiconductor manufacturer Yangtze Memory Technologies Corp, by placing them on the trade ministry's blacklist.

In doing so, sanctioned manufacturers will be prevented from purchasing US components, Bloomberg reported on Wednesday.

The Bloomberg report stated that the sanctioned Chinese enterprises may only purchase US-made components after obtaining a special export authorization from the US Department of Commerce.

Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin said. according to the report, that the US government "politicized and weaponized economic cooperation."

China hits back against US chip sanctions, files WTO complaint

China has filed a case with the World Trade Organization, hitting back against US export sanctions on microchips, further fueling the tech war between Washington and Beijing. 

On Monday, China's Ministry of Commerce said its WTO complaint was a legal and necessary measure to defend its "legitimate rights and interests. "

For context, in October, the US Department of Commerce introduced sanctions on China, putting hurdles in Beijing's way to buy or develop advanced semiconductors. 

“At a minimum, the case is about China pushing back on how it’s perceived as an unfair actor in the global trading world,” said Ben Kostrzewa, an expert on US-China trade relations at Hogan Lovells.

The complaint would mark the first step in a WTO mediation process, where the case would normally be put before the Appellate Body - however, the body has been suspended due to disagreements among member states.
