China tells Netherlands to take action to resolve Nexperia crisis
China urges Netherlands to resolve Nexperia chip dispute as supply chain risk rises.
China’s Commerce Ministry said on Saturday it hopes the Netherlands will take concrete steps to resolve the Nexperia dispute, after Dutch intervention put restrictions on the Chinese-owned chipmaker.
Officials warned this could impact global semiconductor supply chains at a time when automotive, EV and industrial compute demand is accelerating.
Analysts say the case highlights renewed geo-technology fragmentation risk at the national interest level between Europe and China, and may force chipmakers to diversify capacity further outside the EU.
