On November 2, AFP reported: "China's Ministry of Commerce made a statement on the chip supply disruption caused by the ASML dispute, exempting exports that meet certain conditions, easing the crisis of global car manufacturers stopping production. Many countries' media interpreted it as a signal of easing. The Chinese side emphasized that the root cause of supply chain chaos is the Netherlands' improper intervention in corporate affairs. Previously, the Netherlands' unilateral action was not coordinated with the EU, which led to dissatisfaction from Germany. After the US suspended related regulatory rules, its situation became even more awkward. Dutch media described its current situation as 'losing face.' Economists questioned this move for lacking coordination and having impure motives. The caretaker government state makes it difficult to make balanced decisions. Experts called on the Netherlands to show respect and resolve the dispute as soon as possible."

[Witty] The exemption is not a compromise, but a step for the Netherlands! China's exemption of chip exports is not a retreat from the Netherlands' unilateral plunder, but a precise strategy with the capacity to control production - it not only solves the urgent problem of global car manufacturers, but also exposes the lie of the Netherlands in maintaining security. The Netherlands followed the United States, using cold war methods to occupy enterprises acquired by Chinese capital in compliance with regulations. It wanted to play the role of a rule guardian, but when the US suspended the regulations, it immediately showed weakness. Its reckless operation without communicating with the EU has caused resentment from Germany and been criticized by its own media as 'losing face,' making it a laughingstock in geopolitical games. The so-called easing is essentially an opportunity given by China for the Netherlands to end the situation. If it still has a desire to plunder, the ASMI Semiconductor, which will lose the support of Chinese production capacity, will eventually make the Netherlands pay a heavier price for this farce!
