IEEE表示，2019年5月16日，負責執行美國出口管制條例的美國商務部工業和安全局（簡稱“BIS”）將華為加入限制名單。違反出口管制條例的行為將受到重大的民事或刑事處罰，包括罰款或監禁。 “作為一個在美國紐約注冊的非政治性，非營利組織，IEEE必須遵守美國及其他地區管轄權內規定的法律義務，遵守這些法規能保護IEEE及其志愿者與全體會員。”
IEEE同時強調，所有IEEE會員，包括華為員工，都可以繼續正常保持IEEE個人及企業會員資格，并行使投票權；正常訂閱、訪問IEEE的數字圖書館并閱讀IEEE其他出版資料及文獻；正常提交技術論文并正常進入發表審核流程；正常參加并出席IEEE贊助的學術會議及活動，并可以贊助或接受IEEE的獎項。與華為有關的會員還可以正常參加商務、后勤和其他會議，包括參與學術大會的策劃。
“華為及其員工可以繼續成為IEEE標準協會的成員，包括正常獲得或行使會員的投票權；正常參加IEEE標準制定會議，提交新的標準提案，參與標準技術提案的公開討論。”
此外，在IEEE網站上，中國青年報·中青在線記者查到了分別于5月22日、24日發布的IEEE關于會員和志愿者涉及BIS“實體名單”的聲明及“常見問題”。IEE在第12個“常見問題”中解釋，被列入“實體名單”機構的雇員可以擔任IEEE旗下期刊的主編、編委、審稿人等角色，但必須將接收論文投稿事項轉交給與“實體名單”所列機構無關的志愿者；“實體名單”所列機構的雇員“可能無法”在論文被IEEE接收之前參與論文的同行評議工作。
截至目前，已有來自北京大學、清華大學等高校的IEEE會員就此提出抗議。

IEEE聲明
IEEE將針對近期美國出口管制條例（以下簡稱“EAR”）的增加名單做出回應，同時進一步闡釋EAR對全球范圍內（包括中國地區）IEEE會員的影響。
2019年5月16日星期四，負責管理和執行 EAR的美國商務部工業和安全局（簡稱“BIS”）將華為技術有限公司及其68個附屬公司（在以下段落中統稱為“華為”）加入限制名單。見EAR第744部分的第4號補充內容。違反EAR的行為將受到重大的民事或刑事處罰，包括罰款或監禁。
一直以來，IEEE致力于向其會員，志愿者和整個專業技術組織提供廣闊的學術活動平臺和幫助。其中，IEEE每年在全球舉辦1900余場專業技術會議，并在IEEE Xplore®上提供超過480萬份文獻資料。而這些服務始終保持對所有會員開放，無論他們來自任何企業。
在提供這些服務時，（作為一個在紐約注冊的非政治性，非營利組織）IEEE必須遵守美國及其他地區管轄權內規定的法律義務。遵守這些法規能保護IEEE及其志愿者與全體會員。
相關美國政府的法規限制了華為公司及其員工無法參與IEEE一些通常不向公眾開放的活動，包括一部分的出版物的同行評議和編輯過程，而IEEE需要合規。
然而，所有IEEE會員，包括華為員工，都可以繼續正常保持IEEE個人及企業會員資格，并行使投票權；正常訂閱、訪問IEEE的數字圖書館并閱讀IEEE其他出版資料及文獻；正常提交技術論文并正常進入發表審核流程；正常參加并出席IEEE贊助的學術會議及活動，并可以贊助或接受IEEE的獎項。與華為有關的會員還可以正常參加商務、后勤和其他會議，包括參與學術大會的策劃。
華為及其員工可以繼續成為IEEE標準協會的成員，包括正常獲得或行使會員的投票權；正常參加IEEE標準制定會議，提交新的標準提案，參與標準技術提案的公開討論。
如果美國政府對EAR在同行評審方面的應用做出進一步闡釋，IEEE將進行相應的調整。
我們為IEEE全球的會員在世界各地開展的工作而感到自豪。IEEE將繼續致力于推動技術創新與進步，為人類社會謀福祉。

Compliance with U.S. Trade Restrictions Should have Minimal Impact on IEEE Members Around the World
Statement from IEEE
IEEE would like to clarify our response to recent additions to the U.S. Export Administration Regulations and what they mean to IEEE members worldwide, including those in China.
On Thursday, May 16, 2019, the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security (“BIS”), which administers and enforces the U.S. Export Administration Regulations (“EAR”) specifically added Huawei Technology Ltd. and 68 of its affiliates (referred to collectively as “Huawei” in the following paragraphs) to the BIS “Entity List” found in Supplement No. 4 to EAR Part 744. Violations of the EAR carry significant civil or criminal penalties, including fines or prison sentences.
IEEE offers a wide range of activities and benefits for its members, volunteers and the wider technical community, including sponsoring more than 1,900 annual conferences and events worldwide and providing access to over 4.8 million publications on IEEE Xplore®. These services remain open to all, no matter their employer.
In providing these services (as a non-political, not-for-profit organization registered in New York) IEEE must comply with its legal obligations under the laws of the United States and other jurisdictions. Compliance with these regulations protects IEEE, our volunteers, and our members.
IEEE complies with U.S. government regulations which restrict the ability of the listed Huawei companies and their employees to participate in certain activities that are not generally open to the public. This includes certain aspects of the publication peer review and editorial process.
However, all IEEE members, including those employed by Huawei, can continue to participate in individual membership, corporate membership and voting rights; subscribe to and access IEEE’s digital library and other publication products; submit technical papers for publication; participate in and present at IEEE-sponsored meetings and conferences, and may sponsor and accept an IEEE award. Members affiliated with Huawei may also participate in business, logistics, and other meetings including those related to conference planning.
Huawei and its employees can continue to be a member of the IEEE Standards Association, including earning or exercising the voting rights of membership; attend IEEE standards development meetings, submit new proposals for standards, and participate and comment in public discussions of standards technology proposals.
Should the U.S. government clarify the application of the EAR with respect to peer review we will further advise the IEEE community.
IEEE is proud of the work our members do all over the world and we are committed to advancing technological innovation and excellence for the benefit of humanity.
