Xiaomi Corp said on Friday that it strongly opposed the Ukrainian government's decision to place it on their so-called list of "international sponsors of war", adding that it only provides civilian smartphones and home appliances.

Xiaomi said, as a global enterprise established in Beijing, it believes that every consumer worldwide should have the right to access communication tools and internet information.

"We are engaged in consumer businesses in over 100 countries and regions around the world and strictly comply with the local laws and regulations accordingly," Xiaomi said.
