Rubio’s Bid to Distance U.S. From Israel’s Attack on Iran Immediately Blows Up

Trump isn't able to get diplomatic agreements. He directly threatened the Iranian negotiators' safety unless they agreed to the terms he set. Very similar to what was seen in the Istanbul talks where they tried to get a ceasefire by Russia under the guise of 'peace talks' so that the war can be extended. There is no middle ground. Also, similar to what occurred in Ukraine with the purge of the negotiators who agreed to the ceasefire agreement in April 2022.

US tech czar warns China is only two years behind in semiconductor and chip design
Huawei's AI chip gains highlight China's growing capabilities
By Skye Jacobs June 21, 2025 at 9:57 AM

White House technology adviser David Sacks has raised concerns that China is rapidly narrowing the gap with the United States in semiconductor design, estimating the difference is now just one and a half to two years. In a recent interview with Bloomberg, Sacks said Chinese companies, especially Huawei, have become adept at finding ways around US restrictions on advanced chip technology.

According to Sacks, Huawei is making swift progress in chip design and could soon begin exporting its hardware, although the company still faces challenges in producing high-end GPUs.

Huawei's momentum is visible in the Chinese market, where it is preparing to ramp up shipments of its new 910C AI chip to domestic customers. This chip, which integrates two of Huawei's previous 910B processors, is expected to deliver performance comparable to Nvidia's H100, one of the leading AI chips globally.

While this approach does not represent a technological breakthrough, it effectively doubles computational power and memory, offering Chinese firms a viable alternative as US export restrictions tighten.
