China has imposed new restrictions on the export of rare earths, essential for military technologies and semiconductors, in the context of trade negotiations with the USA. These restrictions require licenses for the export of extraction and processing technologies, and applications for military use will be rejected. These measures aim to protect national security amid ongoing tensions between the two major economies.
