The Biden administration expanded its technology curbs to China on Monday, Dec. 2, prohibiting the sale of certain types of chips and machinery, and adding more than 100 companies to a restricted-trade list.
This is the third move by President Joe Biden in the past three years to prevent China from acquiring and making advanced computer chips, citing national security threats to the U.S.
The chips are used for powering artificial intelligence and supercomputers that can be used to launch cyber attacks and design new weapons.
“Such practices seriously undermine the international economic and trade order, disrupt the stability of global production and the supply chain, and harms the interests of all countries,” a spokesperson for China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs said.
Chinese industry groups are now calling for Chinese companies to purchase chips within China or from countries other than the United States, saying American chip products are no longer safe and reliable.
The groups did not go into detail on the issues with U.S. chips.
This all comes ahead of President-elect Donald Trump taking office next month. He has indicated he would continue to pressure China’s tech industry by hiking tariffs on Chinese goods.
