BBC Media: The US government is considering adding several Chinese chip manufacturers to the export blacklist.
According to知情 sources cited by the Financial Times on the 16th, the Trump administration is planning to add several Chinese chip manufacturing companies to the export blacklist, but some officials hope to delay this move in order not to affect efforts to reach a long-term trade agreement with China.
The report said that the US Department of Commerce is considering adding more Chinese companies, including CXMT, to its export control list.
The Bureau of Industry and Security, which is affiliated with the US Department of Commerce, is also considering adding some subsidiaries of Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation (SMIC) and Yangtze Memory Technologies Co., Ltd. (YMTC) to the "entity list".
Chinese companies listed on the entity list are not allowed to purchase products from US companies without permission from the US government, and it is becoming increasingly difficult to obtain such permissions.
