    Invading the Falklands absolutely trashed Argentina’s economy, and being offside with the UK continues to hurt them.

    Attempting to invade Taiwan would utterly destroy the Chinese economy, and I think they’re smart enough to know it.

      And don’t give them any benefits, TSMC most valuable asset is their employees not the machines, anyone can buy ASML machines, only TSMC employees can do it as good as they do

        AFAIK China isn’t allowed to buy loads of fancy ASML machines, however TSMC has said they have procedures to destroy those machines if there’s ever an invasion

        anyone can buy ASML machines

        I’d be very surprised if China was allowed to do this after invading Taiwan.

          A yes of course, but I was talking more about how AMD, Intel, Nvidia, Apple, Samsung all have the best in the industry, but still no one can just buy ASML and make chips as good as TSMC
