China’s Wang Yi downplays EU concerns over rare earth export controls ...Middle East

China’s Foreign Minister Wang Yi, speaking in Berlin, addressed EU concerns over rare earth export controls:

"Rare earths have not been, are not, and will not be a problem between China and Europe, or between China and Germany." "If legal applications are submitted, Europe’s and Germany’s normal needs can be met."

German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul said the restrictions were causing "great concern" and hurting China's reputation as a reliable trading partner:

"We are on the path to finding sustainable joint solutions that will bring the necessary detente."

Asked whether a deal could be reached before the upcoming EU-China summit, Wang replied:

"This is not an issue between China and Europe... controlling dual-use goods is standard practice. China and Germany both have the right to do so."
