The Dutch government on Wednesday said it suspended its intervention at Chinese-owned chipmaker Nexperia, following constructive talks with Chinese authorities.
“We see this as a show of goodwill,” Dutch Economy Minister Vincent Karremans said in a statement, posted on social media platform X.
The development appears to bring an end to a bitter dispute between the Netherlands and China, one that had prompted global automotive groups to raise the alarm over a worsening chip shortage.
“An important goal in the discussions with the Chinese authorities is the resumption of exports from China in order to alleviate the disruption to value chains. At the time of writing, there is cautious optimism following a number of reports that Nexperia chips are being delivered again,” Karremans wrote in a letter to government, translated by Google.
