Later that day, Kean addressed concerns about national security and technology exports. In a post from December 3 at 18:03 UTC, he wrote: “China is actively working to circumvent U.S. export control laws and illegally obtain American-made AI chips.

That evening, Kean spoke about foreign policy during a congressional markup session. At 20:07 UTC on December 3, he stated: “Today I spoke in support of the End the Cyprus Embargo Act at the @HouseForeignGOP markup.
