China blames Netherlands for disrupting chip supply with Nexperia move

BEIJING (Reuters) -China has blamed the Netherlands for “turmoil and chaos” in the global semiconductor production and supply chain after the latter seized computer chipmaker Nexperia, the Chinese commerce ministry said on Tuesday.

The ministry said Netherlands has “acted alone”, urging the Dutch government to stop interfering in the internal affairs of enterprises and to find a constructive solution for the situation with Nexperia, a unit of China’s Wingtech.
