Wishful thinking from wannabe Anglos in the bulgarian trumpist editor of zero hedge.
Think of this column as the latest iteration of a western “ghost dance”; pitiful and impotent attempts at turning back the inevitable.

The irony is the people who explicitly wants to prevent the development of nations with much larger population, are themselves much easier to suppress by said nation with much larger population, and by explicitly stating their intent, they invite counter suppression that has been much more successful.

After all China has not shown a single iota of mercy when it comes to allowing the west to retain any industry, and people like this play a big part in why.
Thanks to US restrictions on the sale of telecom equipment to China in the 1990s, Chinese telecom equipment purchases literally went from 100% imports (mostly from US) in some years in the 1980s to zero imports. It led to the rapid growth of Huawei and ZTE and the equally rapid decline and eventual death of the once world leading North American firms Lucent (defunct 2006), Nortel (defunct 2013), and Motorola (exited telecom business in 2010).

Now, these China hawks are determined to repeat the same mistake with semiconductors and semiconductor manufacturing equipment. The irony that the semiconductor sanctions were first imposed on Huawei and ZTE is completely lost on them.
