The U.S. Department of commerce, through the Bureau of industry and Security, announced new regulations aimed at limiting China's ability to produce semiconductors with advanced nodes that are used to build modern weapons systems, artificial intelligence, and high-performance computing. This is reported by the Office of congressional and public affairs of the United States, reports UNN.

These measures are part of a broader US strategy to make it harder for Chinese authorities to access critical technologies needed for military modernization.
The new rules include expanding control over 24 types of equipment for the production of semiconductors, as well as over 3 types of software that are used in the processes of creating such chips. In addition, 140 new companies have been added to the list of organizations that are prohibited from receiving American technology, including Chinese semiconductor manufacturers and investment companies working to strengthen China's military capabilities.
These changes are aimed at limiting the development of technologies that have dual uses — both for civilian and military purposes. In particular, advanced semiconductors are critical for the creation of modern military systems, such as artificial intelligence, used for Strategic and intelligence purposes, as well as for the development of weapons of mass destruction.
The new rules also tighten controls on foreign goods of American origin to prevent them from being used by China in the production of high-end semiconductors. The United States intends to continue working with its allies to ensure that advanced technologies do not fall into the hands of potential adversaries.
