So is China: https://www.tomshardware.com/features/zhaoxin-kx-u6780a-x86-...

> As such, China began an initiative to build its own processors back in the early 80's that eventually evolved into the "Made in China 2025" campaign that has the goal of producing 70% of the chips used in China by 2025.

That should be a pretty easy goal for them to hit, right? Just buy the chips that are manufactured at TSMC.

TSMC doesn't design chips, which is the stated goal. China wants China-designed chips, not just "China" manufactured chips.

(ignoring that TSMC is Taiwanese and not currently under PRC rule but is instead de-facto independent and mostly internationally recognized as being independent...)
