On Tuesday, the Chinese Ministry of Commerce stated it would no longer allow the sale of gallium, germanium, antimony, and other key minerals to the US, citing national security.
The US Department of Commerce introduced new rules to further impair China's semiconductor production capabilities, specifically targeting AI and military applications, by limiting equipment and software.
