The United States has added seven Chinese supercomputer
research labs and manufacturers to its export blacklist. The latest
sanctions block access to U.S. technology for Chinese researchers and
manufacturers for making supercomputers used by Chinese military in
weapons development.
Chinese-designed supercomputers have set records for speed but are
assembled from U.S.-supplied processor chips and other hardware. The
measure announced by the US administration yesterday indicates that
President Joe Biden is sticking to the tough line taken by his
predecessor, Donald Trump, toward Chinese technological industries.
President Biden has said he wants better relations with Beijing but has
given no indication he will roll back sanctions imposed by Trump on
Chinese telecom equipment giant Huawei and other companies. Meanwhile,
American telecom regulators are in the process of stripping three
Chinese phone carriers of the right to operate in the United States.
Former US President Donald Trump also
tried to force the Chinese owner of video service TikTok to sell its US
unit and issued an order barring Americans from investing in securities
of companies deemed by the Pentagon to be linked to China's military.
