U.S. Commerce Department Drops Plan to Ban Chinese Drones

The U.S. Commerce Department said it has withdrawn a plan to impose restrictions on Chinese drones to address national security concerns after an earlier crackdown on passenger cars and trucks. Last month, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission barred imports of new models of foreign-made drones and critical components including from China's DJI and Autel on U.S. national security grounds.
