Source: Ministry of Commerce website, November 19 report, the spokesperson of the Ministry of Commerce answered questions on the issue related to Nexperia.

Reporter asked: Regarding the Nexperia issue, what is the situation of recent consultations between China and the Netherlands?

Response: On November 18 and 19, the Chinese and Dutch government departments held two rounds of face-to-face consultations in Beijing on the Nexperia issue. In the consultation, the Chinese side once again emphasized that the source and responsibility for the current global semiconductor supply chain chaos lie with the Dutch side, and urged the Dutch side to take practical actions as soon as possible and effectively resolve the Nexperia issue, restoring the security and stability of the global semiconductor supply chain. The Dutch side proposed to suspend the executive order issued by the Dutch Minister of Economic Affairs under the "Act on Availability of Goods".

The Chinese side welcomed the Dutch side's initiative to suspend the executive order, believing that this is a correct first step towards properly solving the problem, but there is still a gap from resolving the root cause of the global semiconductor supply chain turmoil and confusion, which is "repealing the executive order." At the same time, the erroneous ruling by the enterprise court under the Dutch Ministry of Economic Affairs, which deprived Gaoxin Technology of control over Nexperia in the Netherlands, remains a key obstacle to solving the problem. The Chinese side hopes that the Dutch side will continue to demonstrate its willingness to cooperate sincerely with China and truly propose constructive solutions to the problem. Both sides agreed that administrative intervention should be canceled, and support and promote enterprises to resolve internal disputes through negotiations in accordance with the law, protecting the legitimate rights and interests of investors, and creating more favorable conditions for restoring the security and stability of the global semiconductor supply chain.
