The United States is sanctioning more than 150 businesses and individuals as it tries to crack down on evasion and deny Russia access to technology, money and financial channels that fuel Moscow's war in Ukraine.

    That must be why SMIC just showed 7nm capability years ahead of when people expected it.

    Nah, it was expected all the way since SMIC bought 7nm lithography machines from ASML. It will be more interesting to watch when they start building their own lithography machines since their current stock will not scale (and will eventually break down without spare parts).

    That must be why Russia is projecting GDP growth this year and Russia’s manufacturing

    Yeah, according to Rosstat :-)

    Who do you think you’re convincing with this?

    I’m not trying to convince anybody, I’m fine with the current sanction course. But it’s kinda funny to watch the Russian / tankie desperate “sanctions don’t work, so … you know there’s no sense in continuing them, so … you should lift them.”
