Trump’s approval of Nvidia H200 chip exports to China raises U.S. security concerns
The Trump administration’s decision to allow Nvidia’s H200 AI accelerators to be sold to China, with a 25% export fee on such sales and similar approvals expected for AMD and Intel, has drawn criticism from national security officials and China hawks. Critics warn that granting China access to advanced U.S. AI chips could bolster its military capabilities and undercut the rationale for previous export controls, while the White House argues that controlled sales will slow Chinese efforts to build domestic alternatives.
