Lawmakers urge US Secretary to act against Huawei's semiconductor development amid national security concerns
Chinese Communist Party (SCCCP) have urged the U.S. Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo to take immediate action against Huawei's rapid development of semiconductor fabrication facilities.
They expressed concern that Huawei is attempting to conceal its involvement in these operations to circumvent existing American restrictions, according to a release from the Select Committee.
The lawmakers highlighted that these facilities depend heavily on U.S.-produced semiconductor manufacturing equipment (SME), presenting a crucial opportunity for the United States to impede Huawei's ambitions, which they argue pose significant threats to national security.
The letter noted that Secretary Raimondo had previously raised alarms about Huawei's chip manufacturing capabilities, calling reports of the company's use of US SME to produce advanced semiconductors «deeply disturbing.»
Earlier this year, America's Commerce Department took an important step by revoking licenses that allowed U.S. companies to ship chips to Huawei's smartphone division. The lawmakers asserted that in addition to prohibiting Huawei from acquiring US chips, it is vital to restrict the flow of SMEs to prevent the company from fabricating its own chips.
