Dutch Defence Minister Ruben Brekelmans has raised alarms over increasing Chinese espionage targeting the Netherlands' semiconductor industry, emphasizing that China seeks to acquire valuable intellectual property. The Dutch military intelligence agency identifies China as the primary cyber threat, with a notable rise in cyber activities linked to Chinese hackers infiltrating companies like NXP and ASML. In response, the Netherlands has shifted its policy towards a security-first approach, implementing export controls and investment screenings to protect its technological assets, which has led to a significant decline in semiconductor exports to China.
Chinese espionage efforts targeting the Netherlands are reportedly intensifying, particularly within the semiconductor sector, according to Dutch Defence Minister Ruben Brekelmans. He highlighted the significance of this industry, noting its technological leadership and the interest it generates for China in acquiring intellectual property. The Dutch military intelligence agency previously indicated that Chinese spies have been actively pursuing Dutch industries.
