Tesla cars will be barred from entering a Chinese coastal district for at least two months

A Chinese region is banning Tesla cars at a site that is holding an annual leadership summit.

This move comes just weeks after a similar ban was imposed in the city of Chengdu when Chinese President Xi Jinping visited the area.

In 2021, the Chinese military banned Tesla’s from entering its complexes altogether. The decision came over fears the cameras installed on the vehicles were being used for spying purposes.

Tesla boss Elon Musk has long denied these claims, saying his company would be banned from China completely if the allegations were true.

The coastal city where the retreat will be held is a beach resort east of Beijing. It is known for hosting China’s most influential leaders on an annual basis.

The attendees will reportedly discuss personnel’s political moves and policy ideas behind closed doors.

While the fate of TikTok remains uncertain in the U.S.—there is no shortage of possibilities.

Several investors are hoping to benefit from a new federal law that requires TikTok’s China-based parent company to sell the popular platform or face a ban.

This comes after ByteDance and TikTok filed a lawsuit against the U.S. government to block the law from going into effect.

Meanwhile, eight TikTok creators filed their own challenge, arguing the law violates their First Amendment rights to free speech.

But as the saga continues many media outlets are defending the platform.
