I hope they won't participate - thin edge of the wedge here
I really hope the Netherlands keep themselves out of this blatant attempt to skew global competitiveness by the US, there's been too much of that.
Why should the country harm its own industries and political relationships just because one of them has damaged its own educational system and milked its own economy dry so much that they can no longer compete honestly? Yes, they will then tell you about all the Chines espionage, while simultaneously keeping vewwy, vewwy quiet about their NSA and CIA, and about what Google, Facebook Meta and Microsoft are dragging out of every country - it has all become rather blatant since Trump.
Biting the hand that feeds IT
