The US is firing back again in the great China chip wars
The US is ramping up its actions against China in the ongoing chip battle between the two countries. The Biden administration is reportedly considering imposing sanctions on Chinese semiconductor firms connected to Huawei Technologies. At the same time, the US government is set to announce $8.5 billion in grants to Intel for the construction and expansion of chip facilities across the country. These moves are part of the US's efforts to restrict China's chip industry while boosting its own semiconductor manufacturing and AI capabilities. China, in turn, is encouraging its EV makers to prioritize local chipmakers over US ones.
