[Ministry of Foreign Affairs: China has always been committed to maintaining the stability and security of the global supply chain of critical minerals] On September 21, Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Guo Jiakun hosted a regular press conference. A reporter from the New York Times asked: Last week, a U.S. official stated at a briefing that China has not yet fully restored rare earth supplies despite its commitment to this matter at previous summits. What is China’s position on this? Guo Jiakun said that it is recommended to ask the Chinese competent authorities for specific questions. China has always been committed to maintaining the stability and security of the global supply chain of key minerals. China and the United States should jointly implement the important consensus reached by the two heads of state and maintain the stable development trend of China-US economic and trade relations.
