TSMC, Other Taiwanese Chip Companies Complying With Russia Export Controls Amid Ukraine Attack

Taiwanese semiconductor companies are complying with export controls imposed by the government on Russia as part of sanctions over Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine, Taiwan’s economic ministry said on Sunday.

Taiwan, which announced Friday that it will join international sanctions against Russia, is a major chipmaker with the world’s largest contract chipmaker and Asia’s most valuable listed company, TSMC.

The economy ministry said it was following the Wassenaar Arrangement on Export Controls of Arms and Dual-Use Goods and Technologies signed by 42 countries in 1996 to rigorously test products destined for Russia.

“Domestic semiconductor manufacturers have also indicated that they will comply with the law and closely cooperate with government measures,” she added, without elaborating.

TSMC said last week that it would comply with all export controls. She declined to comment further on Sunday.

Taiwan, which China claims its own territory and is therefore excluded from most international institutions and agreements, is not a signatory to the Wassenaar Arrangement.

But the government is happy to show that it is a responsible member of the international community by taking measures such as UN sanctions against North Korea for its missile and nuclear tests.

Taiwan’s exports to Russia are negligible.

The Taiwanese government said Saturday that it expects the war in Ukraine to have little impact on the supply of a key raw material for semiconductors.

Tom signs Nolan’s next

This will mark the first collaboration between Tom and Christopher. While details of his next directorial aren’t known yet, it’s most likely not to have a contemporary setting. It’ll be either set in the past like, his previous film Oppenheimer (2023), or in the future like Interstellar (2014). Matt Damon, who has worked with Christopher in both, has also come on board his next.

Christopher’s next will be co-produced by him and his wife Emma Thomas’ banner Syncopy Inc and Universal Pictures, as the two production houses will team up after the Academy Award-winning blockbuster Oppenheimer last year. Prior to Oppenheimer, Christopher collaborated mostly with Warner Bros before having a fallout post the debacle of Tenet (2020).

Warner Bros then went on to produce Greta Gerwig’s musical satire Barbie, which clashed with Oppenheimer at the box office and even outperformed it globally. Warner Bros offered Christopher a cheque for the fees he waived off for helming Tenet during the pandemic. While Christopher graciously accepted the belated remuneration, he still went on to pitch his next to Warner Bros.

Tom’s busy schedule

Tom didn’t have any release this year. His last outing was Todd Graff’s psychological thriller show The Crowded Room on Apple TV last year. He’ll juggle the filming of Christopher Nolan’s next and Spider-Man 4 in 2025. Tom has been playing the superhero ever since Russo Brothers’ 2016 blockbuster Captain America: Civil War. He’s slipped into the Peter Parker shoes post that for three standalone films and two Avengers movies. Spider-Man 4 will be helmed by Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings director Destin Daniel Cretton.

As Tom’s girlfriend and co-star Zendaya will be busy filming Spider-Man 4 in 2025, she’ll reprise her role of Chani in Denis Villeneuve’s sci-fi spectacle Dune 3 only in 2026. Meanwhile, Tom is also likely to make an appearance as Spider-Man in Russo Brothers’ Avengers: Doomsday, which will go on floors in the spring of 2025.
