US EditionUnited States Forms AI Partnership with UAE
- On May 15, 2025, in Abu Dhabi, U.S. President Donald Trump and the leader of the United Arab Emirates, Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed, reached an agreement to enable the UAE to acquire cutting-edge American AI semiconductor technology.
- This agreement followed the Trump administration's rescission of a Biden-era AI diffusion rule that had restricted export of advanced AI chips to allied Gulf countries like the UAE.
- The deal includes enabling the UAE to import up to 500,000 Nvidia H100 chips yearly to power a 5-gigawatt AI technology cluster and data center in Abu Dhabi built by Emirati firm G42 with U.S. Partners.
- Trump referred to the agreement as a substantial deal anticipated to generate massive economic activity and advance the UAE's goal of becoming a leading center for artificial intelligence.
- The partnership signals deeper U.S.-UAE technology and investment ties but raises concerns among some U.S. Lawmakers about potential risks of sensitive technology transfer to rivals like China.
