S. Korea, Netherlands Hold Their First Ever 2+2 High-Level Talks on Chips, Supply Chains, AI
South Korea and the Netherlands held their inaugural “2+2” high‑level talks in The Hague, bringing together foreign ministers and trade officials to cement a strategic partnership focused on semiconductors, supply‑chain resilience, artificial intelligence and cyber security. Both nations are pillars of the global chip ecosystem—South Korea supplies over half of the world’s DRAM and NAND memory, while the Netherlands hosts ASML, the sole provider of extreme‑ultraviolet lithography machines essential for advanced nodes. In a joint statement, the ministers pledged deeper cooperation across SMEs, research institutions, and joint R&D projects, including quantum technologies, and agreed to coordinate early‑warning systems, export‑control consultations, and supply‑chain monitoring. Foreign Minister Tuan emphasized that “our countries have evolved into truly complementary and irreplaceable partners, especially in semiconductors and advanced technologies,” underscoring the urgency amid rising geopolitical tensions and the need for a rules‑based order. The dialogue also addressed responsible AI use and cyber‑security frameworks, reflecting broader strategic concerns beyond hardware. The agreement signals a concerted effort to safeguard critical technology supply chains, reduce dependence on any single source, and position both economies as leaders in next‑generation chip manufacturing. By institutionalising cooperation, the partnership could shape global standards, influence trade policies, and provide a counterweight to US‑China tech rivalry.
