HONG KONG -- U.S. President Donald Trump's administration has significantly expanded the trade blacklist it inherited from the previous Joe Biden team, aiming to further constrict China's capabilities to develop artificial intelligence and advanced computing, as well as direct military technologies like hypersonic missiles.
The Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) of the U.S. Commerce Department has added 80 organizations to the Entity List for actions "contrary to U.S. national security and foreign policy."
