Any competent defense plan would have a contingency to level every semiconductor fab on that island to rubble and evacuate all the technical people that would be useful in rebuilding them prior to China seizing control.
The current "sanctions on Russia" are harming the west much more than Russia. I fear that depriving the world of microprocessors and RAM chips could have disastrous consequences. We have already seen huge price rises when a single factory has gone out of commission.

"The Biden administration is trying to choke China's access to the technology that makes chips."
And: https://www.bbc.com/news/business-63995570
"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."
Does anyone else find this to be weird? Doesn't China control Biden? Either this is all fake or the Patriots control Biden and are in control and we are just watching a movie...
Too little, too late. Are they capable of making the most advanced chips on 3 nm processes? No. But do they need to be if at the end of next year they can churn out 7 nm ones in massive quantities?
Once China has invaded Taiwan all this will be academic. They will have cornered the semiconductor market.

Or maybe not!
