China halts ban on export to US of dual-use metals
The Freeman
|November 10, 2025
China suspended an export ban to the United States that had targeted gallium, germanium and antimony, metals crucial for modern technology, Beijing’s commerce ministry announced Sunday in a further deescalation of the trade war with Washington.
-
The restrictions banned the export of so-called dual-use goods, materials that can have both civilian and military applications.
Imposed in December 2024, the ban will now be suspended until November 27, 2026, Beijing’s commerce ministry said in a statement.
The announcement comes after leaders Xi Jinping and Donald Trump met on October 30 in South Korea and agreed to walk back some punitive measures imposed during their tit-for-tat tariff escalation.
At one point, duties on both sides had reached prohibitive triple-digit levels, hampering trade between the world’s two largest economies and snarling global supply chains.

Too much politics, too weak economy
Even during the height of disasters and calamities, the Pinoys talk about politics. The problem with the Philippines is that Filipinos eat politics for breakfast, for lunch, and for dinner. I lived in Malaysia, Kuwait, and Taiwan as a labor diplomat for a total of nine years. I witnessed how Malaysians, Kuwaitis, and Taiwanese focused on economic development and left politics to the politicians.
