However, the Dutch government had been under pressure from the US for the past year to enact such a ban.<\/p>\n<p>A deal was reportedly reached between Washington, The Hague and Tokyo in January this year for several key firms, including the Netherlands\u2019 ASML and Japan\u2019s Nikon and Tokyo Electron, to emulate US export restrictions on China.<\/p>\n<p>And last November, the UK\u2019s Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy ordered Nexperia, a Dutch subsidiary of China\u2019s Wingtech, to sell its controlling stake in Welsh microchip precursor factory Newport Wafer Fab for fear it could \u201cundermine UK capabilities\u201d in fields such as telecoms and facial recognition.
