L'Occident a puni la Russie en lui interdisant de se procurer des puces 
nanométriques. La Russie a rétorquer en privant l'occident de gaz rares. 
La baffe, c'est le seul langage que comprennent les Occidentaux !

Russia restricts export of gas critical to chip production

The measure comes in response to EU sanctions targeting technology 
exports to the country

Russia has restricted the export of noble gases, including neon, in an 
apparent tit-for-tat response to the fifth round of sanctions imposed by 
the EU in April.

The government decree, published on Tuesday, states that through 
December 31 of this year the export of noble, and others, will be 
subject to government approval, based on the recommendation of the 
Ministry of Industry and Trade.

Noble or inert gases, such as neon, argon, xenon, and others, are 
crucial to the semiconductor manufacturing process. Semiconductors are 
used to make the microchips needed for gadgets, cars, and household 
appliances.

In April, the EU banned exports of semiconductors, machinery and other 
equipment worth €10 billion to Russia as part of the fifth package of 
sanctions. According to the newspaper Izvestia, citing its sources in 
the government, Moscow wants to remind so-called 'unfriendly' countries 
that they also depend on Russian exports when it comes to semiconductor 
manufacturing. Russia supplies up to 30% of the neon consumed globally, 
Izvestia said.

There has been a global shortage of semiconductors since the beginning 
of the coronavirus pandemic, which is due to supply-chain issues and 
temporary halts in production. The conflict in Ukraine has further 
exacerbated the problem. Ukraine, a major neon exporter, has stopped 
supplying the gas to the global market, sending prices skyrocketing. 
China and Japan are other major manufacturers of noble gases, but their 
supplies are mainly consumed domestically.
