The behavior of the Dutch economy minister has drawn widespread attention and discussion from the outside world.

Not until you compare, Vincent Karelman, the Dutch Minister of Economic Affairs, is just a fool and a clown.

This chip manufacturing process is very common and low-level, not a project strictly controlled by the US government against China. However, this fool went out of his way to offer a pledge to the US, completely messing it up.

Why say "not until you compare"? Because ASML is based in the Netherlands. Extreme ultraviolet lithography machines are a strictly controlled item by the US government. However, the former CEO of ASML, Wijnning and the current CEO, Fue Kai, have always opposed the US ban. When they could no longer resist, they turned to China for discussions and reached an agreement, then created a special version that bypasses the sanctions.

In the middle of two major powers, ASML did not take sides, but instead maneuvered according to its own interests, maintaining good relations on both sides and making money at the same time.

Stupidity is evil. Ah [sigh]
