Foreign Ministry spokesman Lin Cheng hosted a routine press conference on October 17. Foreign media reporters asked: ¡°The European and American Automobile Association warned that the Dutch government announced the takeover of the Anselm Semiconductor could cause a supply chain disruption. Is the Chinese government consulting with the Netherlands on solving the issue?

Lin said that we have responded to the relevant questions before, and the competent authorities of China have further clarified their position yesterday. I want to emphasize once again that China has consistently opposed the generalization of national security concepts and discriminatory practices against specific country enterprises. The relevant countries should correct the wrong practices, adhere to the spirit of the contract and the principles of the market, stop undermining the global supply chain, and China will firmly safeguard its legitimate legal rights and interests.
