China says it may speed up rare earths application approvals from EU
- China said this week it will speed up rare earth mineral export approvals to the European Union following talks in Paris.
- Discussions between China’s trade official Wang Wentao and European Trade Commissioner Maros Sefcovic focused on trade tensions amid ongoing anti-dumping investigations and export licensing requirements implemented since April.
- China proposed establishing a green channel to fast track qualified rare earth export applications and stressed the importance of reciprocal EU measures.
- China is responsible for over 60% of global rare earth mining production and produces 92% of the world’s refined rare earth materials. Commerce Minister Wang expressed the hope that the EU will implement effective measures to support and streamline trade.
- The move aims to ease tensions and precedes a final ruling on tariffs and anti-dumping expected before July 5, with both sides needing further negotiation efforts.
