Capital News: The Benjamin Norton Interview: Attention! U.S. Objectives Quietly Shifted

Recently, China-United States relations appears to show some signs of détente.Among others, U.S. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer led a congressional delegation to China and was accorded a high level of courtesy in China. Earlier, China and the United States launched a pair of economic and financial working groups in an effort to deepen economic communication between the two countries.

On the other hand, on October 17th, theU.S. released three final rules to update the semiconductor export controls issued on October 7, 2022 for further tightening export restrictions on chips that support artificial intelligence and semiconductor manufacturing equipment to China, and add a number of Chinese entities to the “Entity List”.
