In the United States, such a ban has been in place for American companies since last fall. The reason is very simple, Joe Biden and Gov do not want China, especially the technology needed for its military apparatus.
In addition, the United States is reportedly implementing a provision that allows the United States to ban exports of goods from other countries if they contain at least some American component. This means that even more restrictions apply to China. Unlike the Netherlands, the U.S. doesn't plan to wait that long, with new rules coming into effect in July.
America is not just manufacturing equipment. They also don't want to see already-made AI chips exported to China.
