EU says China confirms Nexperia chip export resumptions

1. SS: China’s partial lift of its export ban on Nexperia semiconductors—critical for automotive electronics—on Nov 8, 2025, averts EU production halts after the Dutch seizure of the Wingtech-owned firm in Sept for security reasons, with exemptions for “civilian use” chips tied to the Xi-Trump trade deal. As Volkswagen and others warned of stoppages, EU Trade Commissioner Sefcovic hailed the “immediate” resumption while pushing for a “stable framework” to restore flows. Does this de-escalation, amid broader US-China tariff truces on rare earths, signal pragmatic decoupling pauses in transatlantic supply chains, or expose Europe’s vulnerability to Beijing’s weaponized tech controls in a multipolar chip race?

2. oh Europe,

   we had such high hopes, but you decided to become an insignificant province in the American Fascist Wonder World.

3. The EU should build all 9or at least most) of its own chips.
