China Warns Japan of Retaliatory Measures Over Potential New Chip Curbs

Recent diplomatic tensions between China and Japan have led to warnings from Beijing regarding retaliatory measures in response to Japan's potential new semiconductor export restrictions. Chinese officials insist that such steps would have negative repercussions not only on bilateral relations but also on the global chip market.

According to official sources, Beijing is concerned about statements from the Japanese government regarding preparations for new controls on high-tech chip exports to China. This poses potential challenges for the domestic semiconductor industry, which is already facing numerous obstacles, including international restrictions and sanctions.

Chinese officials warned that any actions from Japan regarding Chinese technologies could lead to a series of retaliatory measures from Beijing, further complicating mutual investments and commercial exchanges between the two countries. Specifically, Chinese authorities assert that such restrictions may have serious consequences for Japanese companies operating in the Chinese market.

Nevertheless, analysts also note that Japan, in the framework of its security strategy and technological leadership, has legitimate grounds for implementing such restrictions, especially given the strategic importance of chips for national security and economic prosperity. In response to potential threats, China is beginning to consider its own measures to protect its high-tech products from international restrictions.

Thus, the current situation could result in heightened tensions between the two countries, which could significantly affect both regional stability and the global supply chain in the technology sector. Chinese officials emphasize that they will act in their interests if Japan decides to continue its course on restrictions.
