China urges Japan not to support US chip export restrictions
Chinese Foreign Minister Qin Gang has urged Japan not to support US restrictions on China’s semiconductor industry, as Washington seeks to rally nations behind chip export restrictions.
The US is trying to rally key countries in the semiconductor supply chain around chip export restrictions.
According to the Chinese foreign ministry statement, “The United States has used bullying tactics to brutally suppress Japan’s semiconductor industry, and now the same tactics are being used again against China. Japan should not help the USA. The embargo will only further inspire China’s determination to stand on its own.» said.
Last year, the U.S. Department of Commerce introduced sweeping rules aimed at preventing China from acquiring or manufacturing advanced chips—a move analysts say could curb the domestic semiconductor ambition of the world’s second-largest economy.
For US restrictions to be effective, Washington is seeking participation from other key countries in the semiconductor supply chain, including South Korea, Japan and the Netherlands. Washington has been trying to rally some of these countries around its measures and is having some success.
Japan is an important part of the semiconductor supply chain, with key companies such as Sony and Tokyo Electron.
