  • On Tuesday in Paris, Chinese Commerce Minister Wang Wentao held talks with Maros Sefcovic, the European Commissioner responsible for trade and economic security, focusing on rare earth export regulations, anti-dumping investigations, and tariffs affecting electric vehicles.
  • The Commerce Ministry stated China will establish a 'green channel' to fast track qualified rare earth export applications, emphasizing cooperation and timely communication.
  • The effort signals potential easing of EU-China trade frictions and aims for a final ruling on related issues before July 5, with a summit planned next month.
