Lubon Breckelman, Dutch Defense Minister, Reuters
Breckelman said in an interview during the Shangri-La Dialogue that: "In the semiconductor industry, we are leading or advanced in technology, and of course, China is very interested in obtaining those intellectual property rights." When asked whether the so-called "espionage activities" have stopped, Breckelman falsely claimed, "They are still ongoing. In our latest intelligence reports, our intelligence agencies stated that the biggest network threat comes from China. We indeed see that most of our network activities originate from China. This was last year's situation, and it remains this way now. So we only see this situation worsening." Last February, the Dutch National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) released a report, falsely accusing Chinese hackers of launching cyber attacks against the Netherlands. In response to this claim, the spokesperson of the Chinese Embassy in the Netherlands at that time replied that the Chinese government consistently firmly opposes and legally combats all forms of cyber attacks, and does not allow any country or individual to carry out illegal activities such as cyber attacks within China or using Chinese infrastructure. The spokesperson pointed out that cybersecurity is a common challenge faced by all countries. China opposes any malicious speculation and groundless accusations, advocating for dialogue and cooperation to jointly maintain cybersecurity.
