ASML Refutes US Claim It Sent $200M EUV Chip Tool to China
U.S. officials warned ASML that its most advanced EUV lithography machine might have slipped into China, but the Dutch chipmaker says none of its $150‑$400 million tools have ever been shipped there. The claim matters because EUV machines are the sole gateway to cutting‑edge AI and HPC chips, and any breach could reshape the global semiconductor supply chain.
