Russia crashes West’s chip infrastructure by turning off Helium and Neon supplies

With the West and Russia against each other, the Russia-Ukraine conflict is resulting in a new trade war every day. First, the Western world chose to impose an oil and gas embargo on Russia. Then, the West decided to stop supplying Russia with semi-conductors. Semi-conductors/chips are employed in the production of everything. They are found in all electrical gadgets, from defence systems to mobile phones. Everything requires extremely improved semiconductor devices, from the internet of things (IoT) to wireless communications (5G) to Artificial Intelligence (AI). In any case, Russia has now imposed restrictions on gas exports in retaliation (Helium, Neon, etc).
Neon gas is majorly used in the semiconductor production
Nonetheless, the Noble gas has a significantly more essential purpose in semiconductor manufacturing. The usage of noble gases, particularly neon, is common in the chip manufacturing process. Crucially, it’s been stated that semiconductor manufacturing consumes over 75% of the global neon supply.
So Poland decided to ban Russian coal imports in April and now is scrambling to find new sources. Russian coal is cheaper and was used by heating plants in Eastern Poland which can't be swapped out for Polish coal. Russian coal is of a higher quality containing less sulphur.

・・・ハンガリーがロシアの天然ガス確保に精を出しているのとえらい違いです。
Privately western govts are now deeply concerned that economic and financial implosion is going to lead to risks of unquantifiable societal unrest. If this is indeed the case expect to see unprecedented money printing to bail everyone out, which will only makes things worse.

西側諸国の政府は、経済と金融の崩壊が、数値化できない社会不安のリスクにつながることを内心深く懸念している。もしこれが本当なら、人々を救済するために前例のない紙幣印刷が行われることになり、事態はさらに悪化するだろう。
