The U.S. government is employing sanctions and export controls to limit China's military buildup, including development of brain warfare and toxin weapons, a senior Commerce Department official told Congress on Thursday.

“Ensuring that our technology is not used against us is central to our approach with the PRC,” she stated, using the acronym for People’s Republic of China. “Using a scalpel approach, we seek to restrict the PRC’s military modernization efforts by restricting key, sensitive technologies without undercutting U.S. technology leadership and unduly interfering with commercial trade that doesn’t undermine our national security and foreign policy.”said the department imposed sanctions based on U.S.

A report by three intelligence analysts disclosed earlier this month by The Washington Times stated that leads the world in the development of brain warfare arms — weapons using microwave or other directed energy sources to disrupt brain functions or influence government leaders or entire populations.‘s December 2021 notice on the sanctions said only that the Chinese military is using “biotechnology processes to support Chinese military end-uses and end-users.”
