In a recent statement on Tuesday, China27s Ministry of Commerce called on the US side to correct its wrongdoings, show sincerity in trade talks, and align efforts with the Chinese mainland.
The remarks came after US claims that China had postponed a proposed phone call to discuss recent rare earth export controls, alongside suggestions that both sides should seek ways to restore a stable situation.
A ministry spokesperson stressed that the latest export control measures on rare earths and related items are a legitimate practice adopted by the Chinese government to improve its own export control system in accordance with existing laws and regulations.
As dialogues continue, global markets will be watching closely to see if the US and the Chinese mainland can bridge differences and build a stable framework for future cooperation.
