In 2024, Chinese companies, with government backing, have already imported equipment to the tune of $26 billion, which is higher than imports of the same machinery into China during the first seven months of previous years.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Based on data released by the Chinese General Administration of Customs, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/articles\/2024-08-22\/chinese-imports-of-chip-gear-hit-record-26-billion-this-year\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Bloomberg<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> noted most of the purchases came from leading global corporations including Applied Materials, ASML Holding, and Tokyo Electron. All of these companies make equipment used at different stages of chip fabrication.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">China\u2019s growing imports from ASML have grown by 21% in Q2 2024 with a total value of $2 billion in July alone, shattering previous records on Dutch exports to China. ASML is a leading supplier of equipment used to make advanced chips with lithography \u2014 a technique that uses light to print transistors on a larger semiconductor (mostly silicon) wafer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Sanctions on China\u2019s technology began in 2019, with the Trump administration inhibiting American companies, and their partners across the world, from engaging with Huawei, ZTE, and other key players for alleged ties with the Chinese military. Starting 2022, the US government imposed further restriction preventing American companies from selling lithography machines \u2014\u00a0primarily ones used for the most advanced extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography \u2014 to parties in China. The main objective was to prevent China from getting ahead of the US in the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/news\/smugglers-fuel-chinas-ai-ambitions-nvidia-chips-slip-through-u-s-blockade\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">race to build advanced chips for AI<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> and supercomputing, especially in ways these technologies could benefit the Chinese army.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">By November 2023, the Dutch administration introduced similar sanctions preventing ASML from exporting to China. Until 2023, ASML continued selling older equipment, the previous sanctions did not delist machines for the previous deep ultraviolet lithography (DUV). Even after the sanctions from last year, the Dutch company is not restricted from selling machines for older, more mature nodes to Chinese customers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Despite the governments\u2019 measures, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/technode.com\/2024\/07\/18\/china-accounts-for-nearly-half-of-asmls-q2-revenue-despite-dutch-export-restrictions\/#:~:text=In%20terms%20of%20regional%20breakdowns,dollars)%20of%20the%20company%27s%20total.\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">half of ASML\u2019s sales<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> in Q2 came from China.
