Washington announced some of the broadest export controls on chipmakers in October.
The US is rapidly ramping up efforts to try to hobble China's progress in the semiconductor industry - vital for everything from smartphones to weapons of war.- requiring licences for companies exporting chips to China using US tools or software, no matter where they're made in the world.
The Biden administration has added 36 more Chinese companies, including major chipmaker YMTC to Washington's "entity list". This is the first WTO case Beijing has brought against the US since President Joe Biden took office in January 2021. Earlier this month, the WTO ruled that US tariffs on steel and aluminium that were imposed by the US under former President Donald Trump violated global trade rules.The US said it "strongly rejects" the ruling and has no intention of removing the measures.Japan and the Netherlands could possibly impose export controls on China - limiting the ability of Japanese and Dutch companies to sell advanced products to the Chinese market.
