Summary
The Commerce Department said the UAE will get easier treatment under US export-control laws, opening the way for sales of advanced technologies including Nvidia and AMD AI chips.
The rule cites Abu Dhabi’s steps to safeguard sensitive US technology and its support for Washington in the war against Iran.
Starting July 14, the change will favorably review MGX semiconductor applications and grant license exceptions for advanced-computing equipment, with G42 and Core42 also benefiting.
The move broadens US backing for the UAE’s AI push but has drawn political scrutiny, with Senator Elizabeth Warren calling it corrupt over Trump’s financial ties to MGX.
