China's foreign ministry warned the United States on Friday against imposing more export controls on semiconductors, saying such measures disrupt global supply chains. Beijing says Washington is using allegations of Chinese spying on Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang to justify tech curbs, and the Financial Times reports that China accuses the US of fabricating espionage narratives. Huang resigned as Nvidia's chief executive on Thursday, CBS News reports. Lawmakers have called for more limits on chip equipment sales to China, and China said it was in contact with US counterparts before a planned meeting of the nations' leaders.
