Republican China hardliners Marco Rubio and Elise Stefanik are calling on the Biden administration to block all sales to Huawei after the sanctioned Chinese tech company released a new laptop powered by an Intel AI processor chip.
If the Commerce Department did authorize the shipment,"this would be unacceptable and a failure to enforce export controls against a blacklisted champion of the Chinese Communist Party ," Senator Rubio and Representative Stefanik said in a letter to Commerce Department Secretary Gina Raimondo, first reported by Reuters.
The letter adds to mounting pressure on the Biden administration to take more drastic measures to hobble Huawei. Some of its businesses are seeing renewed growth despite the company having long been in Washington's crosshairs over national security concerns. The Chinese Embassy said it opposes"excluding specific companies from specific countries," and abusing the concept of national security to suppress foreign companies without any conclusive evidence.
