Senators Jim Banks and Elizabeth Warren are seeking a temporary ban on Nvidia sales to Chinese customers of chips more advanced than the H200, The Next Web reported, citing Bloomberg. Lawmakers are negotiating to include the proposal in the annual defense bill, and the senators urged Commerce to suspend or reconsider Nvidia's China export licenses. The push follows reporting on alleged chip diversion involving Megaspeed. Nvidia says it banned sales and shipments to that company in June 2025, while Bloomberg reported later GB300 imports in Malaysian trade records. Megaspeed categorically denies diversion allegations. The proposed sales restriction is still being negotiated.
