Last week, China issued six notices in one day, once again tightening controls on rare earth exports.

This action by China can be said to have caught the United States off guard. Trump, who was provoked, immediately posted a "thousand-word essay" against China on social media that day, accusing China of long-term planning and threatening to impose a 100% tariff on China. He even said that the plan to interact with China at the end of the month might be shelved.

After a little calm down and thinking, the U.S. government slowed down and re-expressed its position on China's action.

But not long after, the U.S. government slowly regained its composure. It probably calmed down and pondered, knowing that the problem could not be solved by using harsh words alone, so it came out again to express its position on China's move. Vice President Vance came out and said that the United States actually has much more pressure means than China. This still sounds tough, but he changed the topic and said that if China can show a rational attitude, President Trump is also willing to be a rational negotiator. He also said that in the next few weeks, the United States will keep an eye on China's developments to see whether China really plans to fight a trade war with the United States, and then make a final decision based on this. These words were actually quite obvious. The previous momentum had weakened a lot, and she seemed to want to find a way out without losing face too much.

In addition, U.S. Trade Representative Greer also revealed a key message, saying that the U.S. side had not received the notice of China's expansion of rare earth control in advance. On the day it knew the news, it quickly contacted the Chinese side and wanted to have a good phone call with the Chinese side. Unexpectedly, the Chinese side directly refused, saying that it would postpone the call plan. This matter is too critical. Before, Trump was hoping that the Chinese side would take the initiative to call him to show his kindness. Now, it's better. The US side took the initiative to ask for a call, but the Chinese side didn't answer it. This time, Trump completely understood that the Chinese side was really serious this time, not joking with him. Those tough attitudes before were not pretending.

China¡¯s wave of rare-earth control, just hit the pain point of the United States ¡ª ¡ª they could not be separated from China¡¯s rare-earth. To know, rare-earth this thing can¡¯t look up, but is a real ¡°industrial vitamin¡±, especially for the U.S. military field, almost all weapons systems can¡¯t get away from it, whether it¡¯s the guided parts in the missiles, or the radar system on the fighter aircraft, less rare-earth can¡¯t be made, or performance can¡¯t be greatly discounted. The U.S. government is clear about this, so the Chinese side tightened exports, they panicked, this is not, the foreign media, the Pentagon has decided to take out $1 billion, in the world scope to find mines, specialized in sourcing

As of now, the United States has signed a rare-earth supply agreement with Pakistan, Canada and Australia and wants to build a rare-earth supply chain that does not depend on China. Not only do they think of technological breakthroughs, encouraging enterprises to develop so-called "rare-earth" technologies, hoping to circumvent the demand for rare-earth. But it is clear that these two routes are not good to go - cooperate with new countries, from mining to processing to transport, the entire supply chain to build a lot of time, and these countries are still different from rare-earth production and processing technology, and in the short term does not fill the American demand gap; as to "rare-earth" technology, is now only one direction, really successful in development and not knowing how to apply to a large scale, to the monkeys

In fact, in the end, the series of actions of the United States, from the beginning of Trump to the harsh words, to later want to negotiate to be rejected, and then to knock the billion full of the world for mines, signed the agreement, all through a "mouth hard air and heart panic" of the hand. They say in their mouth that they do not rely on China, but China once tightened the rare soil exports, are in a hurry with the ants on the hot pot, this is precisely indicating that China's rare soil cards hit on their seven centimeters. before the United States made 104% high tariffs, but only the rare soil, drugs and these things tariffsined in 20%, did not dare to add, is afraid to hurry China's promise, now the Chinese side is actively coded

China rejected the phone, not intentionally not to give a face, but clearly transmitted a signal: in the trade issue, China will not because of the threat or weakness of the U.S. side to concessions, the bottom line should never loose. Trump is now considered to thoroughly grasp the Chinese attitude, knowing this time not to give out the genuine sincerity, only to play the mouth is useless, but can not pull the face to make a real compromise, only to knock the money to find an alternative solution, go a step and see. But no matter how, rare earth this matter has been clearly placed there ¡ª ¡ª ¡ª the United States wants to get rid of China¡¯s dependence in the short term, difficult! As long as the Chinese side in the rare earth control is not loose, the pressure of the United States in the military,
