Interesting to see the extended US BIS rules explicitly mentioned. Hints at US involvement. The Chinese said that their latest rare earth restrictions were a reaction to this and the US port fees, both of which they see a breach of the implicit truce reached in the US China trade negotiations. See: US Export Controls Force Beijing Response, Putting Relationship Back at the Brink https://pstaidecrypted.substack.com/p/…

The Dutch government just explicitly denied any foreign involvement, while at the same time acknowledging that a few years ago the export restrictions for ASML were implemented because of US involvement. Tbh, I don't know what the truth is. I'm a Dutch citizen and what is happening now is unheard of. I don't know what the motivation is and it seems to have happened out of the blue. Maybe the motivation literally is p…

Key part > On 4 October 2025, the Chinese Ministry of Commerce issued an export control notice prohibiting Nexperia China and its subcontractors from exporting specific finished components and sub-assemblies manufactured in China. Nexperia is actively engaging with the Chinese authorities to obtain an exemption from these restrictions and has deployed all available resources to that end. Nexperia is in close dialogue…

You have omitted from the key part that the Chinese export control notice was a reaction to the rule announced on 29 September 2025 by the United States Bureau of Industry and Security, which has put Nexperia on the list of entities to which US export restrictions apply.

So like for all these kinds of actions, regardless whether they happen in the Netherlands or in China or in Taiwan, their origin is in USA.

Official statements aren't exactly detailed, but seem to indicate that the Chinese export control notice was a reaction to the Netherlands' invocation of national security instead: https://cj.sina.com.cn/articles/view/1686546714/6486a91a0190...

I think your assumption that Dutch politicians defend the interests of Dutch citizens, if only for winning votes, is wrong. European politician respond first (or only?) to the US. As a EU citizen, I take no pleasure in saying this.
