On August 30, a spokesperson for the Ministry of Commerce answered reporters' questions regarding the US revocation of "Verified End-User" authorization for three semiconductor companies in China, including Samsung. A reporter asked, "On August 29, the US Department of Commerce removed Intel Semiconductor (Dalian) Co., Ltd., Samsung China Semiconductor Co., Ltd., and SK Hynix Semiconductor (China) Co., Ltd. from the "Verified End-User" authorization list." What is China's comment? The spokesperson for the Ministry of Commerce stated that China has noted the relevant situation. The semiconductor industry is a highly globalized industry. After decades of development, it has formed an interdependent and mutually reinforcing industrial structure, a result of the combined effects of market forces and corporate choices. The US move, driven by selfish interests and instrumentalizing export controls, will have a significant negative impact on the stability of the global semiconductor industry chain and supply chain. China opposes this. China urges the US to immediately correct its erroneous practices and maintain the security and stability of the global industry chain and supply chain. China will take necessary measures to firmly safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of its companies.
