EU reportedly negotiating sanction swap with China over ASML supplier

Original: EU negotiates sanction swap with China to rescue critical ASML supplier https:// fed.brid.gy/r/https://www.toms hardware

The EU is reportedly negotiating a sanction swap with China to rescue a critical supplier to Dutch chip-equipment maker ASML. The German coatings firm is said to face shutdown without access to Chinese materials or markets, and Brussels is weighing a trade-off with Beijing to keep it operating. The case highlights how export controls on semiconductor technology are squeezing smaller suppliers deep in the chip supply chain.

Why now: Ongoing EU-China trade negotiations and tightening semiconductor export controls are putting suppliers like this firm at risk.
