China Defends DeepSeek After US Ban of Its AI From Government Systems

Summary

China's Foreign Ministry and Ministry of Commerce criticized a U.S. Homeland Security order that bars federal civilian agencies from using or procuring DeepSeek products and services, including third-party products built with DeepSeek. The order, dated late July and published in the Federal Register, cites concerns that DeepSeek's servers are in China and that Chinese authorities could access sensitive U.S. data. China warned it would take all necessary measures to defend its interests.
