    What’s stopping a Polish shop seeking 100 4090s to a Russian company that resells to China?

    Pretty sure there is an export ban to Russia on microchips.

      Okay yeah that’s fair. But what about say though Singapore (as was earlier in the news I think), or say Mongolia? There are tons of countries bordering China where it would be possible.

        it’s already happening right now. The loopholes in the sanction regime is pretty big, and virtually unenforceable given the limited manpower and resources BIS/Commerce dept has.
