ASML has suspended deliveries to China of EUV scanners

According to Japanese news Agency Nikkei, the sanctions Washington could strike at the Dutch manufacturer of equipment for the production of semiconductor company ASML. From three unnamed sources confirmed to the paper that ASML delayed the delivery of EUV scanners, the Chinese company SMIC. The SMIC is China's largest contract manufacturer of chips, and the fourth largest in the world in this area (fifth if you count contract the Samsung). For US sanctions, the manufacturer remains a priority target, because it not only produces the chips for the largest Chinese companies that have come under sanctions Washington, but still wholly supported by government funds in China.
