The Biden administration imposed trade restrictions on more than 30 Chinese entities on Thursday for human rights violations and the alleged development of “brain-control weaponry.”

The move comes after the White House announced a diplomatic boycott of the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing, citing “ongoing genocide and crimes against humanity in Xinjiang.”

Beijing denies that it has been committing human rights abuses against Uyghurs in Xinjiang.
