Trump's Nvidia H200 China Sales Approval: A Strategic 'Trojan Horse'?
President Trump's approval of Nvidia H200 sales to China has triggered national security concerns. Analysts view it as a 'Trojan horse' to maintain Chinese tech dependency.
It's a handshake with a hidden motive. Donald Trump just gave his blessing to sales of Nvidia’s powerful H200 AI chips to China, sparking an immediate national security backlash in both nations. This move isn't being hailed as a peace offering; instead, it's raising deep suspicions about long-term tech dependency.
Trump's Approval of Nvidia H200 Sales to China Sparks Backlash
According to various reports, many in Washington view the decision as a risky gamble with national security. However, the reaction from Beijing is even more cynical. Chinese commenters aren't seeing an olive branch; they're interpreting the green light for the H200 as a sophisticated trap.
The Semiconductor Trojan Horse Strategy
The fear in China is that this is a 'Trojan horse' designed to make the country permanently dependent on US semiconductor technology. By allowing access to Nvidia’s advanced architecture, Trump might be trying to stifle China’s own efforts to develop indigenous AI hardware. This approach aims to maintain American control over critical chokepoints in the global tech supply chain.
