the manufacturer of the chip making machine is based in the EU therefore no one can pull out

This has nothing to do with anything, really. It's not like, because I don't sell in the US I can't use American made steel or something.

The actual reason why Apple, and every other company, doesn't want to leave the EU (China for that matter) despite increasingly stringent regulations, it's because the EU represents a huge portion of their revenue and leaving would mean losing billions upon billions, all in the hopes of saving millions.
