What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The US MATCH Act proposes tightening export controls on semiconductor manufacturing equipment to China. This could force corporations located in US vassals to limit or stop the export and servicing of Deep Ultraviolet Lithography (DUV) machines to China. China currently produces about 20 DUV machines annually, utilizing foreign components such as Carl Zeiss lenses and Japanese light sources.
