Curiously enough the Dutch government (or what is left of it) extended the deadline for DUV equipment sold to China until year end. An apparent snub to the US.

I think the problem is that the Chinese alternatives to ASML DUV are close to being good enough. And a ban just would cause ASML to loose the market for good without actually hurting the Chinese industrial capacity.
