The Trump administration has lifted export license requirements for chip design software to China, impacting leading provider Siemens AG. The US Commerce Department informed Siemens of these changes, enabling the company to fully access its technology for Chinese clients. This move, part of a recent trade agreement, aims to ease technology flows as China reciprocates by expediting approvals for critical mineral exports. The decision reflects ongoing adjustments in US-China trade relations.
