WASHINGTON, Jan 14 (Reuters) - The U.S. Commerce Department
said Thursday it added Chinese National Overseas Oil Corporation
(CNOOC) to a U.S. economic blacklist, saying it had helped China
intimidate neighbors in the South China Sea.
    Commerce also said Chinese company Skyrizon was being added
to the Military End-User (MEU) List for "its capability to
develop, produce, or maintain military items, such as military
aircraft engines."
