EU Chamber in China warns of expansion of China's export controls and says EU companies continue to suffer from China's export controls on rare earths, according to Handelsblatt

This could lead to further market volatility, especially in sectors dependent on these materials, and may drive a more significant push for diversification of supply sources or alternative materials.
