U.S. President Joe Biden said on Wednesday April 6 that U.S. sanctions "will stifle the ability of Russia and its economy to grow for years to come. The situation with silicon semiconductors is really sad. They are practically not produced in Russia, and Taiwan Semiconductor (TSMC) products are used for domestic Baikal and Elbrus processors. However, if Russia, in response to US sanctions, bans the import of domestic products used in the production of semiconductors, the entire world economy may stand up. And yet Russia has the technology to create chips from gallium arsenide. After the start of Russia's special operation in Ukraine, TSMC officially announced the suspension of cooperation with Russia. Samsung and American Intel and AMD also announced that they would not supply processors and semiconductors to Russia. But it was the Taiwanese who became the main problem, because the Russian Baikal and Elbrus processors, which were designed to become an alternative to Intel and AMD, are assembled using TSMC products.
