Igor's Lab · Germany · Washington tells ASML an EUV tool is in China; ASML counts all 314 and says no
German engineering coverage parses ASML's unusually explicit rebuttal: neither a complete EUV lithography system nor components specifically developed for EUV systems went to China. Notes the distinction matters legally, since generic dual-use parts differ from EUV-specific ones under Dutch and US controls.
“ASML delivered neither a complete EUV system nor any component specifically developed for EUV systems to China, the company stated.”
