China's Ministry of Commerce said on Friday that it is extremely disappointed and strongly dissatisfied with Dutch economy minister Vincent Karremans' comments on the Nexperia issue in a media interview.

A spokesperson said China has noted these remarks, which confuse right and wrong, distort facts and willfully go their own way. The spokesperson stressed that before the Dutch government issued an administrative order on September 30 and a Dutch enterprise court made an erroneous ruling on October 8, the global semiconductor supply chain was stable. The Dutch side's improper interference, including placing 99 percent of a wholly-owned private enterprise's shares under trusteeship, triggered wide disruption and became the source of global supply chain turbulence.

The spokesperson stated that some in the Netherlands hastily invoked the never-before-used Cold War-era Goods Availability Act after internal discussions, rushed out an administrative order and pushed for a rapid court ruling. Such actions were reckless and absurd, seriously harming the country's business environment and government credibility.

China has taken responsible steps, granting exemptions for compliant civilian-use exports to help stabilize supply chains. While short-term pressure has eased, the spokesperson said the global semiconductor chain remains fragile due to the Dutch actions. Nexperia Netherlands has refused to supply wafers to its Chinese plants and sent legal notices to block Chinese foundries, causing many automakers to face continued supply risks.

China has accepted a request from the Netherlands' Ministry of Economic Affairs to send officials to China for consultations over the Nexperia case in Beijing. The spokesperson urged the Netherlands to demonstrate genuine willingness to work with China and bring constructive, solution-oriented proposals, rather than repeating old rhetoric or creating new problems.
