Recently, some Swedish media claimed that untested Chinese machinery caused Northvolt's bankruptcy.

This narrative was refuted by the Chinese Embassy in Sweden as factually incorrect and a typical attempt to shift blame.

In reality, Northvolt's collapse was not due to Chinese equipment, but rather the inevitable result of its own operational failures.

From reckless expansion and management chaos to lack of experience and low output, this once-promising European battery star crumbled under internal imbalances.

The facts speak for themselves: Chinese equipment is globally leading, fully certified, and reliably serves top-tier companies like Tesla and CATL.

For the European side, it is time to stop searching for scapegoats and honestly confront their shortcomings in industrial capabilities.

Only by discarding prejudice, respecting industrial realities, and pursuing pragmatic cooperation can they truly compete globally.
