Xiaomi has released a statement saying it has no ties with the Chinese military, following allegations by the US government that it does.
"The company confirms that it is not owned, controlled, or affiliated with the Chinese military, and is not a 'Communist Chinese military company' defined under the NDAA," the company said in a statement on Friday.
The company further added that the company has been "operating in compliance with the relevant laws and regulations of jurisdictions where it conducts its business".
