The Ministry of Commerce responded to the US-led ＂Chip Quartet Alliance＂： any framework arrangement should be inclusive and open.

CCTV News:A few days ago, it was reported that the US government was asking South Korea to reply whether to join the "Four-Party Alliance of Chips" led by the US before August. The South Korean side indicated that it was discussing with the US ways to strengthen cooperation in chip manufacturing. At the regular press conference held by the Ministry of Commerce today (July 21st), some media asked the Ministry of Commerce what comments it had on this development and how it viewed the possible impact of the alliance on China’s semiconductor industry. A spokesperson for the Ministry of Commerce responded.

Shu Yuting, spokesperson of the Ministry of Commerce:The stability of industrial chain supply chain is a global issue of great concern to all parties at present. China believes that no matter what framework arrangement, it should be inclusive and open, not discriminatory and exclusive; We should promote the stability of the global industrial chain supply chain, rather than damage and split the global market. Under the current situation, strengthening the open cooperation of industrial chain supply chain and preventing fragmentation is beneficial to all parties concerned and the whole world.
