The US is facing resistance from the Netherlands and Japan in its attempts to expand export restrictions on chipmaking equipment to China. The US is urging its allies to tighten maintenance restrictions for banned gear in China and limit exports of high-end chemicals used in chip production. Both nations are seeking more time to evaluate the impact of existing restrictions on high-end chip-making equipment. China consumes almost 50% of the world's semiconductors and is the largest market for assembling consumer devices, which has sustained American chipmakers' revenue despite the US's efforts to restrict chip sales to China.
