I don't get why you're getting dowvoted. I guess there are a lot of Americans over here. But your statement is absolutely true. The US attempts at restricting China's access to various technologies only make sense if they feel threatened by them.

It just could be, maybe, military posturing.

Because I don't remember any restrictions for as long as China didn't intend to start the WW3.

china is not the country participating, directly or indirectly, in a handful of pretty destabilizing wars right now.

dunno why they are the ones being accused of wanting to start ww3
