That stat is probably only true if you look at things in a certain way -- for example, a highly restrictive definition of "linen". Pretty much every source I've seen says that the top five producers of linen fabrics are China, Italy, Ireland, Belgium and the USA -- with China dominating by far.

Reading a bit more about it, it seems that currently, 80% of the French (raw) linen production goes to China to become fabric (sorry I'm missing some vocabulary here) :/ https://www.peclersparis.com/en/blog/will-linen-spun-in-france-become-the-new-cotton/ https://www.peclersparis.com/en/blog/will-linen-spun-in-fran...
