Foreign Ministry spokesman Guo Jianquan presided over a routine press conference on October 27. Foreign media reporters asked: "About the Sino-U.S. economic and trade consultation, U.S. Treasury Secretary Bessent said he expects China to postpone the implementation of the rare-earth export control system for a year in order to rethink the policy."

Guo Jiangkun said that I have just answered the questions related to the Sino-U.S. economic and trade consultation, and on the specific questions you mentioned, I suggest that the competent authorities of the Chinese side be asked.
