Which is it? I'm not up to speed on the details of the factory but on the surface ensuring local fab capabilities seems like a reasonably justified national security concern.
- bllguo 5y agofrom a US perspective it is clearly a natsec concern, but Taiwan understands pretty much their whole value as an entity to the US is TSMC. As long as they depend on the US, they have to walk a fine line of giving enough away so that the US continues to protect them, but not so much that the US does not care to defend Taiwan anymore
