The US Department of Commerce announced (August 16) that it would expand existing restrictions by preventing Huawei from acquiring chips made outside the US but developed or produced with US software or technology. It also added another 38 Huawei affiliates in 21 countries to its Entity List. The department said in a statement that under the amendment to restrictions imposed in May, Huawei is barred from purchasing foreign-made chips "to the same degree as comparable US chips".
