The U.S. government has been imposing an export embargo on China for a while. However, according to emerging reports, the United States has made a notable decision regarding Nvidia and AMD. According to this decision, the U.S. government has imposed restrictions on the export of these manufacturers’ artificial intelligence-supported chips to certain countries in the Middle East. Here are the details!

U.S. restrictions are affecting some countries in the Middle East!

There has been an ongoing issue between the United States and China for a long time. As a result of this issue, China has been facing export difficulties. But recent reports indicate that this problem is expanding to a wider scope. The latest news reveals that the U.S. has imposed restrictions on semiconductor manufacturers Nvidia and AMD.

As a result of these restrictions, the U.S. government imposed limitations on these manufacturers exporting AI-powered chips to certain Middle Eastern countries. The origin and reason for this step have yet to be determined. According to reports, this restriction covers Nvidia’s A100 and H100 chips, as well as AMD’s MI250 chips.

The government has not provided any information regarding which Middle Eastern countries these decisions apply to. However, it’s worth noting the relationship between China and Middle Eastern countries. Nvidia and AMD have not made any official statements on this matter, but there have been some allegations.

According to Nvidia, only a 10% portion of the company’s business comes from outside the three Middle Eastern countries. A similar situation applies to AMD. The allegations suggest that Nvidia is in contact with the U.S. government. Furthermore, it has been stated that the potential restriction would not significantly impact the company’s revenues.
