The Trump administration has postponed plans to add Chinese artificial intelligence company DeepSeek and memory chip manufacturer ChangXin Memory Technologies (CXMT) to the U.S. Commerce Department’s Entity List, according to a Reuters report citing sources familiar with the matter.
The decision comes despite both companies reportedly receiving approval for inclusion on the U.S. trade blacklist from an interagency committee last year. The delay reflects Washington’s efforts to avoid further escalating tensions with Beijing as disputes over trade, technology, and national security continue to shape U.S.-China relations.
Reuters reported that more than 100 companies identified as potential national security concerns are still awaiting official placement on the Entity List. Among them are at least 75 Chinese organizations involved in advanced semiconductor development, chipmaking equipment production, and artificial intelligence technologies.
DeepSeek attracted global attention after launching low-cost AI models that challenged established competitors in the artificial intelligence market. However, U.S. officials have alleged that the company supports China’s military and intelligence activities. Meanwhile, CXMT, one of China’s leading memory chip producers, has already been designated by the Pentagon as a Chinese military-linked company.
The Entity List is a key tool used by the U.S. government to restrict exports of American goods, software, and technology to foreign entities deemed a threat to national security. Companies placed on the list face significant limitations when purchasing U.S.-origin products unless special licenses are granted.
Industry experts cited by Reuters noted that the Commerce Department has not announced any new additions to the Entity List since October 2025. This marks the longest period without updates to the blacklist in more than ten years, raising questions about the administration’s strategy toward Chinese technology firms.
The delay highlights the complex balance Washington is attempting to maintain between protecting national security interests and managing diplomatic and economic relations with China amid an increasingly competitive global technology landscape.
