国会议员呼吁就监督中美科技协议立法​

本周,美国众议院中国问题特别委员会成员、美国共和党众议员安迪·巴尔(Andy Barr)、尼尔·邓恩(Neal Dunn)和罗伯·威特曼(Rob Wittman)提出了一项法案,要求与中国的任何此类交易都必须通知国会。

如果该法案成为法律,美国国务院将需要向国会提供安全风险、技术转让以及美国监督中国承诺的能力等方面的评估,否则任何协议都将被撤销。

巴尔对路透社说,他对拜登政府不顾委员会提出的 "严重关切",希望重新加入该协议感到失望。他说,我期待着在美国国务院要求的六个月延长期到期之前推进我提出的议案,以确保国会对美国和中共之间任何现有或未来的科技协议进行有力监督。

支持重新修订该协议的人士认为,少了这样的协议,美国将失去对中国科技进步的了解。许多分析人士认为,在与中国的战略竞争日益激烈的情况下,必须重新修订该协议,以保护美国的创新。

美国将台湾,南韩芯片对中国出口禁令再推迟一年。

美国去年启动的对中国芯片出口禁令,包括禁止任何美国人在未经许可下,不能帮助中国工厂开发和生产芯片。中国在2021年超过日本,成为仅次于南韩和台湾的第三芯片生产大国,占据世界芯片市场近三分之一。

一位前美国高级官员表示,华盛顿认为扰乱全球供应链并不符合其最大利益,尤其是在 2024 年美国总统竞选即将到来的情况下。稳定经济是拜登政府的首要任务。

美国半导体行业协会7月表示:“反复采取措施……实施过于广泛、模糊甚至单方面的限制,可能会削弱美国半导体行业的竞争力,扰乱供应链,造成重大的市场不确定性,并促使中国采取持续升级的报复行动。”

U.S. to extend China chip export waivers for Taiwan, Korea chipmakers​

Washington prioritizes avoiding turmoil in global semiconductor supply chains

RINTARO TOBITA, Nikkei staff writerAugust 24, 2023 02:37 JST

WASHINGTON -- The U.S. has decided to extend its one-year exemption allowing South Korean and Taiwanese chipmakers to continue bringing advanced semiconductor technology and related equipment into China, multiple industry sources told Nikkei.

The move is seen as potentially undermining U.S. efforts to curb China's ambitions in the tech sector. But it is also expected to prevent widespread disruption in the global semiconductor supply chain.

Alan Estevez, the U.S. undersecretary of commerce for industry and security, had touched on the possibility of an extension during an industry event in June. The duration of the extension has not yet been decided. But a proposal in the administration to make the exemptions indefinite has been floated.

The U.S. last October imposed sweeping restrictions on exports of advanced semiconductors and chipmaking equipment to China. It also banned "U.S. persons" from helping the development or production of chips at Chinese facilities without a license.

Samsung Electronics, SK Hynix and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., which all have major production hubs in China, lobbied against the curbs, claiming they would deal a major blow to business. The U.S. later issued the companies a one-year waiver that allowed them to continue transactions similar to those they had been engaged in before the introduction of the restrictions.

The U.S. plans to extend that exemption, currently set to expire this October, with the same conditions. This would permit South Korean and Taiwanese companies to bring American chipmaking equipment and other key supplies to their facilities in China, allowing production to continue uninterrupted.
Global semiconductor sales totaled around $570 billion in 2022. Nearly a third came from China, a key production hub for iPhones and other tech devices. China also overtook Japan in chipmaking capacity in 2021, becoming the largest player behind South Korea and Taiwan.

South Korea's chipmakers have particularly strong ties to China. Around 40% of SK Hynix's DRAM production capacity is based in China, meaning the global supply of computers and other electronic devices could have experienced major disruptions without the export exemptions.

Supply chain problems caused by the COVID-19 pandemic dealt a major blow to the global economy.

Given the complexity of the global chip ecosystem, companies would struggle to extract their supply chains from China quickly.

Export restrictions on equipment used in the production of the most advanced semiconductors are proving effective, and are likely another reason for extending the waivers. Japan and the Netherlands have also agreed to impose similar restrictions on exports of such equipment to China.

"The combined effect of the U.S. export controls and eventually the Japanese and Dutch controls will eventually prevent companies in China to produce advanced node semiconductors," said Kevin Wolf, a former U.S. assistant secretary of commerce for export administration.

The Biden administration plans to enforce export curbs only on cutting-edge products that could lead to the development of advanced military equipment. It does not want to disrupt economic activity by also restricting trade in less advanced chips.

Washington does not believe disrupting global supply chains will be in its best interest, especially with the U.S. presidential race coming up in 2024, a former senior U.S. official said.

Inflation in the U.S. remains high despite cooling from its peak. Economic stability is considered a priority for U.S. President Joe Biden, who is seeking reelection.

U.S. Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo will visit China from Sunday to Wednesday for talks with her Chinese counterpart Wang Wentao. The trip is intended to establish a dialogue to prevent U.S.-China tensions over semiconductors from escalating.

Meanwhile, semiconductor companies are growing frustrated by the restrictions around China.

"Repeated steps ... to impose overly broad, ambiguous, and at times unilateral restrictions risk diminishing the U.S. semiconductor industry's competitiveness, disrupting supply chains, causing significant market uncertainty, and prompting continued escalatory retaliation by China," the U.S.-based Semiconductor Industry Association said in July.

 

6月底,参议员RUBIO, HAWLEY 质疑对中国的芯片豁免的危险性​

RUBIO, HAWLEY QUESTION DANGEROUS CHIP WAIVERS FOR CHINA​

JUN 29, 2023 | PRESS RELEASES

The U.S. Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) is reportedly preparing to indefinitely extend waivers that allow Korean and Taiwanese chipmakers to operate high-end semiconductor factories in China.

U.S. Senators Marco Rubio (R-FL) and Josh Hawley (R-MO) sent a letter urging U.S. Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo to reject these waivers, which would undermine the country’s semiconductor export-control regime and unfairly treat the many firms that are complying with the rules instead of lobbying for special treatment that ultimately harms the United States.
  1. “If true, this report exposes BIS’s export-control rule as hollow, and provides further evidence that the Biden Administration’s talk of “competing” with the CCP is weakness masquerading as strength.”
  2. “BIS’s waivers are, at best, a slap in the face to those American, Dutch, and Japanese firms that have agreed to comply with the export controls… These waivers would divide our allies and partners when a united response is needed to confront the CCP.”
  3. “If the United States is serious about halting the CCP’s plans to dominate in the technologies of the future, we must get serious about keeping technology away from the PRC.”

The full text of the letter is below.

Dear Secretary Raimondo:

We write to express alarm that the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) is reportedly preparing to gut semiconductor export controls intended to restrict the People’s Republic of China’s (PRC) access to advanced computer chips. The report states that BIS will extend waivers that allow South Korean and Taiwanese chipmakers to operate as well as expand high-end semiconductor factories in the PRC. If true, this report exposes BIS’s export-control rule as hollow, and provides further evidence that the Biden Administration’s talk of “competing” with the CCP is weakness masquerading as strength.

Issued on October 7, 2022, the BIS interim final rule ostensibly restricted the export of high-end semiconductors and semiconductor equipment made with American technology to the PRC. This rule, at best, was a step in the right direction. It restricted cutting-edge technology, while imposing no limits on legacy chips, which make up the bulk of global sales and have dual-use applications that could support the People’s Liberation Army. Unfortunately, BIS weakened this modest rule by issuing one-year waivers to Taiwanese firm TSMC, as well as Korean firms SK Hynix and Samsung Electronics. These waivers were presented as a one-year grace period that would allow these chipmakers to end restricted transactions with the PRC. Now it seems this was actually spin, and that BIS will allow these foreign chipmakers to do business freely with the PRC. Undersecretary of Industry and Security Alan Estevez, the head of BIS, reportedly told the semiconductor industry’s lobbying group that those waivers will be extended for the foreseeable future. If this report is true, these waivers will deliver sensitive technology to Beijing on a silver platter.

The CCP is executing an all-out campaign of subsidies, threats, and technology theft to build its semiconductor industry, in keeping with General Secretary Xi Jinping’s boast that the CCP will be the “gravediggers of capitalism” in the twenty-first century. The PRC’s special interest in this sector is outlined in its Made in China 2025 industrial strategy and other guidelines and policies, such as its Military-Civil Fusion (MCF) strategy. According to the bipartisan U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission, “Beijing is attempting to establish a leading position in the next global ‘revolution in military affairs’ and is employing its [MCF] strategy to gain advantage in key emerging technologies.” Just this month, a former Samsung executive was arrested and charged by authorities in the Republic of Korea with stealing factory blueprints with the intent of duplicating a Samsung factory in the PRC. This example is one of hundreds. BIS is now making the CCP’s job easier by allowing some of the world’s biggest chipmakers to sell more chips to the PRC, helping Chinese engineers access, copy, and steal that technology.

BIS’s waivers are, at best, a slap in the face to those American, Dutch, and Japanese firms that have agreed to comply with the export controls. Korean and Taiwanese firms, some of the largest and best-connected in the industry, would stand to pick up market share from firms that comply with the export controls and did not lobby for an exemption. These waivers would divide our allies and partners when a united response is needed to confront the CCP. At worst, we fear BIS could point to the very harms caused by its waivers to try to reverse the interim rule entirely.

BIS’s export-control rule was presented as the centerpiece of the Biden Administration’s attempt to cut off Beijing’s access to cutting-edge technology, in keeping with its so-called “small yard, high fence” approach to export controls. That approach was always inadequate to the scale of the threat. Another round of waivers would make it laughable. If the Biden Administration’s goal is to restrict cutting-edge technology to the CCP, why is it contemplating giving indefinite licenses to foreign firms so they can continue offering dangerous technology in the PRC?

If this report is true, it fits with the overall trend of the Biden Administration’s broken export-control regime and weakness toward Beijing. In 2021, BIS approved 88 percent of applications for export licenses to the PRC; the previous year, 94 percent of applications were approved.5 If the United States is serious about halting the CCP’s plans to dominate in the technologies of the future, we must get serious about keeping technology away from the PRC. As such, we urge you to immediately reject these waivers.

Thank you for your attention to this important matter.

Sincerely,
