Micron CEO Sanjay Mehrotra’s Bad Blood With Apple Traces Back Years, Report Reveals Amid Chip Standoff and Efforts To Procure From China’s CXMT

Apple is lobbying U.S. officials to let Chinese memory chip makers like CXMT and YMTC into its supply chain.

Micron CEO Sanjay Mehrotra is pushing back, arguing the move would hurt U.S. industrial interests.

The Wall Street Journal says long-running tensions between Apple and Mehrotra have intensified the standoff.

The outcome could affect device costs, U.S. supply-chain policy, and competition in the memory chip market.
