(...) Unlike ASML’s LPP (laser-produced plasma) method, which relies on high-energy lasers and complex FPGA-based controls, the report indicates that China’s LDP (laser-induced discharge plasma) offers a simpler design, smaller footprint, better energy efficiency, and potentially lower production costs.
(...) set for trial production for the third quarter, 2025, with mass manufacturing aimed for 2026.

It might actually be good. Let them test a new approach. I heard that powerful lasers ASML gets from the USA, so who knows... Maybe the new technology will help to become USA-free for EU companies.

i wish for the European Union to develop and become less reliant on the USA. As for this development in China, there will be (in my opinion) many effects, including a decrease in pressure on Taiwan.

Chinese ambition of Taiwan has very little to do with semiconductor industry and mostly to do with their nationalism/legitimacy of CCP.

You might be right since i know close to nothing about Chinese Communist Party. Yet, i believe they would be secretive about exactly how much one and the other thing weighs in the balance for them.
