Reuters reported on the US ban on the import of new Chinese humanoid robots

The administration of American leader Donald Trump has tightened the rules for importing new Chinese robots and power inverters, explaining this as an alleged risk to the country's national security. This was reported by the Reuters news agency on July 28.

"The Federal Communications Commission (FCC. — Ed.) on Tuesday afternoon published measures that prohibit Chinese imports of new humanoid and four—legged robots, as well as connected power inverters that allow renewable energy sources and batteries to connect to networks and data center equipment," the publication says.

It clarifies that the FCC believes that the use of such devices increases the risk of vulnerabilities in supply chains, which can affect the country's economic and national security, as well as allegedly create cyber threats to critical infrastructure.
