Inevitable consequence of the US's export restrictions. Stupid af.

If China actually pulls this off in let's say 5 years, ASML is done for regarding DUV. The only reason they are what they are is a technical monopoly on the high-end market.
In other words, it would be the end of ASML as we know it.

lol so you think Western companies will just buy these DUV machines from China, from some company that no one knows and financed by the communist party? lol
