Overview
- Economic Affairs Minister Vincent Karremans suspended the emergency order under the Goods Availability Act, framing the move as a goodwill step following talks with Chinese officials.
- China’s commerce ministry welcomed the suspension as a first step but pressed the Netherlands to revoke the order entirely and to undo court measures that stripped Wingtech of control.
- Key court actions remain in force, including the Amsterdam Enterprise Chamber’s removal of CEO Zhang Xuezheng and the transfer of Wingtech’s voting rights to an administrator, with further proceedings pending.
- Wingtech said it will use all legal means to restore shareholder control of Nexperia, signaling a continuing legal fight even as some chip shipments resume to automakers.
- A senior U.S. lawmaker urged the Commerce Department to probe four Chinese wafer suppliers potentially linked to Nexperia China, underscoring ongoing U.S. scrutiny of alternative sourcing routes.
