China is seeking to acquire equipment and knowledge in the Dutch space sector, sometimes in circumvention of export restrictions, the Netherlands' military intelligence agency said on Wednesday.
The agency, known by its Dutch acronym MIVD, said in its 2022 annual report that its analysis "shows the Chinese satellite launch capacity will increase further in the coming years to 100 launches per year".
The Chinese want to become a leader in space by developing state-of-the-art quantum communication networks with global coverage, the report said. Beijing's embassy in the Netherlands rejected the AIVD's remarks, saying accusations Chinese firms were spying were false and that they instead followed Dutch laws and regulations.
