REUTERS/Andrew KellySept 20 (Reuters) - The U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) named Chinese telecom companies Pacific Networks Corp, its wholly-owned subsidiary ComNet (USA) LLC and China Unicom (Americas) as threats to U.S. national security, the regulator said Tuesday. The designations are under a 2019 law aimed at protecting U.S. communications networks. The FCC said the companies are subject to the Chinese government's exploitation, influence and control, along with the associated national security risks. Earlier this year, the U.S. regulator voted to revoke China Unicom's U.S. unit, Pacific Networks and ComNet's authorization to operate in the United States, citing national security concerns. In March, the FCC added Russia's AO Kaspersky Lab, China Telecom (Americas) Corp (0728.HK) and China Mobile International USA (0941.HK) to the covered list.
