Bessent calls for restricting Nvidia chip exports and points to Commerce Department
US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent backed restricting exports of Nvidia chips made by Megaspeed, though he noted that decision falls to the Commerce Department, led by Howard Lutnick. Bessent told CNBC he finds the delay "frustrating," given that Trump made clear China should not receive Nvidia chips above the H100 model. Commerce investigated Singapore-based Megaspeed and decided not to add it to the control list.
