Reference News Network, October 14 report. According to AFP, on October 14, the China Semiconductor Industry Association stated that it "firmly opposes" the Dutch authorities' intervention in one of Wen's Tech's branches in Europe.
The China Semiconductor Industry Association stated that it firmly supports its member unit Wen's Tech in safeguarding its legitimate rights and interests, and criticized the recent intervention measures by the Dutch authorities.
The association stated in a statement: "We oppose the abuse of the 'national security' concept and the implementation of selective and discriminatory restrictions on Chinese enterprises' overseas branches."
The China Semiconductor Industry Association said: "Discriminatory measures against specific companies will undermine the open, inclusive, and collaborative global semiconductor ecosystem, and we firmly oppose this."
When asked about this matter, the Chinese Foreign Ministry urged "relevant countries to truly abide by market principles and not politicize trade and economic issues."
Zheng Jian, spokesperson for the Chinese Foreign Ministry, said at a press conference on the 13th: "China has always opposed the generalization of the national security concept and taking discriminatory actions against enterprises of specific countries."
The semiconductor industry has become a key battlefield between China and the West. Countries such as the United States and the Netherlands have imposed restrictions on the export of advanced chip manufacturing equipment to China.
