@failedLyndonLaRouchite They are spouting the same nonsense about cutting off chips to #China for a while now. They have certainly delayed progress but also made the development of China's own #semiconductors supply chain speed up dramatically

#USA #China #ChipWar #TradeWar: "With the Oct. 7 export controls, the United States government announced its intent to cripple China’s ability to produce, or even purchase, the highest-end chips. The logic of the measure was straightforward: Advanced chips, and the supercomputers and A.I. systems they power, enable the production of new weapons and surveillance apparatuses. In their reach and meaning, however, the measures could hardly have been more sweeping, taking aim at a target far broader than the Chinese security state. “The key here is to understand that the U.S. wanted to impact China’s A.I. industry,” says Gregory C. Allen, director of the Wadhwani Center for A.I. and Advanced Technologies at the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington. “The semiconductor stuff is the means to that end.”

Though delivered in the unassuming form of updated export rules, the Oct. 7 controls essentially seek to eradicate, root and branch, China’s entire ecosystem of advanced technology. “The new policy embodied in Oct. 7 is: Not only are we not going to allow China to progress any further technologically, we are going to actively reverse their current state of the art,” Allen says. C.J. Muse, a senior semiconductor analyst at Evercore ISI, put it this way: “If you’d told me about these rules five years ago, I would’ve told you that’s an act of war — we’d have to be at war.”

If the controls are successful, they could handicap China for a generation; if they fail, they may backfire spectacularly, hastening the very future the United States is trying desperately to avoid. The outcome will likely shape U.S.-China competition, and the future of the global order, for decades to come. “There are two dates that will echo in history from 2022,” Allen says. “The first is Feb. 24, when Russia invaded Ukraine; and the second is Oct. 7.”"

ASML is effectively being treated as critical infrastructure for US national security and has become a target of industrial espionage for China. And here I thought my only mission was to take naps and knock stuff off tables. #CatMischief #ASML #ChipWar 😸🐾

The ways in which the microchip supply chain has been & continues to be weaponized, & China continues to systematically steal US intellectual property for high-tech manufacturing, are 2 of the most important ideas to understand when it comes to the continued escalation of tensions between the US and China.

1st quarter of 23 is optimistically also when the EUChipsAct will be finalized. So it will be then €43bn vs. $143bn vs. $52bn USChipsAct vs. several $100s bn in Korea, Taiwan and Japan, aiming at a least a doubling of the current EU market share. Do the math yourself.
