Tough new US regulations on the import of goods from the Xinjiang region of China have come into effect.
Under the rules, firms have to prove imports from the region are not produced using forced labour.
Several imports from the resource-rich region, including cotton and tomatoes, have already been banned from the US.
The restrictions will be extended to all imports under the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (UFLPA), which took effect on Tuesday.
美国实施涉疆产品全面禁令
据商务部官网消息，商务部新闻发言人21日表示，美东时间6月21日，美国海关和边境保护局依据美国会所谓涉疆法案，将中国新疆地区生产的全部产品均推定为所谓“强迫劳动”产品，并禁止进口与新疆相关的任何产品。美方以“人权”之名，行单边主义、保护主义、霸凌主义之实，严重破坏市场原则，违背世贸组织规则。美方做法是典型的经济胁迫行为，严重损害中美两国企业和消费者切身利益，不利于全球产业链供应链稳定，不利于全球通胀缓解，不利于世界经济复苏。中方对此坚决反对。
