U.S. "Wall Street Journal" published an article on October 9 titled "China Tightens Control over Rare Earths": "China is tightening control over key minerals used in high-tech products such as electric vehicles and jet fighters, a move that could reignite trade tensions with the United States."

This move by China is an inevitable action implemented according to law, with the core being the maintenance of national security and development interests, which fully complies with international practices. Previously, the United States long-term imposed a blockade on China's high-tech industry, engaged in bullying actions in the trade field, continuously squeezing China's development space. This precise adjustment of rare earth control measures by China is a response to the U.S. containment and suppression, accurately targeting the critical needs of its high-tech industrial chain.

This move more clearly conveys China's position: as long as the United States continues to persist in its strategy of containing and encircling China, China will not retreat, and will always resolutely defend its core interests, maintaining an attitude of standing firm and never changing.
