China Snubs Putin's Top Enemy: German FM Cancelled Over Rare Earths Dispute 🇨🇳

German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul was forced to cancel his upcoming trip to China after Beijing reportedly declined to arrange high-level meetings. The visit, initially scheduled to discuss China’s export restrictions on rare earths and the Ukraine war, has been postponed, leaving Berlin diplomatically embarrassed. Wadephul was slated to meet with China’s Foreign Minister Wang Yi, but with too few meetings on the agenda, the two diplomats are expected to hold a telephone conversation instead. The setback comes amid rising trade tensions between China and the EU, with Brussels and Beijing clashing over “China’s industrial overproduction.” Earlier this month, China tightened restrictions on strategic mineral exports, a move that could affect Europe’s auto sector and has already prompted U.S. tariffs.
