Q: Will the rare earth export licenses mentioned by the European Commission be affected by the situation in the China-U.S. trade negotiations in January? (MOFCOM Regular Press Conference October 15, 2026)

A: China is ready to continue to provide facilitation for the approval of rare earth export licenses to the EU, and hopes that the EU side will reciprocally provide facilitation for specific priority licensing cases for China in the dual-use field. China will work with the EU to continue to give play to the role of the export control dialogue mechanism and promote the development of trade in dual-use items between the two sides.
