That’s ok because the front-company called “O-rings” supplies the west with all of the component parts for their hi-tech weapons as well.
Makes sense for both.
Chips is chips.
Dog bites man.
It’s a simple display of capitalism, nothing here to see. Pray harder.

China has plenty of corrupt and greedy people and companies.
Well, they need something to spend the extra $100 Billion that they made last year from the “sanctions”. The sanctions are by far the biggest welfare payment ever made to Russia. And guess which country is paying the largest amount of money through the higher energy costs comparing 2021 to 2022?

“Due to their low costs, minimal power consumption, and lower heat generation than their competitors, ARM processors are desirable for light, portable, battery-powered devices, including smartphones, laptops and tablet computers, and other embedded systems. However, ARM processors are also used for desktops and servers, including the world’s fastest supercomputer (Fugaku) from 2020 to 2022. With over 230 billion ARM chips produced, as of 2022, ARM is the most widely used family of instruction set architectures (ISA) and the ISAs produced in the largest quantity.”

Take the L and go home.
Seeems like I read a few months ago that something like 167 countries refuse to support the US sanctions placed on Russia and Russians.
Russia, to this day, still supplies the USA with 30% of the enriched nuclear fuel needed for US nuclear reactors.
Some US utilities are even lobbying the US Congress to allow them to increase the quota allowed from Russia, as it can’t be replaced for at least several years.
It is all of old buys. Russia produces her own microcontrollers already.
I thought Putin was opposed to Nazism. Here he’s dealing with a genocidal, Nazi state. Maybe they’ll even do to him what Hitler did to Stalin. They do want Siberia back.
What a (non)surprise. Anything that Biden is involved with turns out be be corrupt.
Given that most Russian weapons depend upon Western technology and are filled with it, this might help them keep the war going for longer.
