The US is pressuring Mexico to accept new sourcing rules limiting non-North American components for AI hardware exports to prevent tariff circumvention and reshape the regional AI hardware supply chain. This move indicates an escalation in US technological trade control that could impact global supply chains amidst growing AI hardware exports from Mexico.
