Nexperia's shipment resumption from China remains unconfirmed by Dutch officials, affecting automakers amid chip shortages.
AMSTERDAM (Reuters) -The Dutch government and Nexperia on Saturday declined to comment on media reports that the White House plans to announce a resumption of shipments from Dutch chipmaker Nexperia's Chinese facilities.
Reuters cited a source familiar with the matter on Friday as saying the White House would make such an announcement, which would be a relief to automakers that face the prospect of curbing production due to a shortage of vital chips.
The Netherlands said in a statement that it remained in contact with the Chinese authorities and international partners "to work toward a constructive solution that restores balance to the chip supply chain and that is good for Nexperia and our economies".
A spokesperson for Nexperia said that it had been "continuously calling for a de-escalation of the current events".
Last month, the Dutch government seized control of Nexperia, owned by Chinese company Wingtech. The move prompted Beijing to block Nexperia products from leaving China.
