China Tungsten Shortage Expected Amid Export Restrictions

CRI News Radio Beijing 16d14d Impact 5

China has implemented a comprehensive optimization and expansion of its visa-free transit policies for foreign nationals. Meng Xiaoxu, a researcher at the Japanese Studies Institute of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, stated that Japan's continuous advancement of militarization aims to strengthen domestic political consensus and consolidate the ruling party's base. Meng added that these actions represent a continuation of conservative political lines and an attempt to break away from the post-war defense framework to achieve status as a military power. The Chinese government further alleged that Japan aims to break from post-war constraints to become a major military power. China warned that these actions are breaking the long-standing security balance in East Asia and increasing the risk of a regional arms race.

China warned that these actions are breaking the long-standing security balance in East Asia and increasing the risk of a regional arms race. The report noted that US requests for Japan to increase defense spending to 3.5% of GDP could alter Japan's counterstrike capabilities. These developments are viewed as a practical negation of Article 9 of the Japanese Constitution. Critics argue these revisions push Japan toward becoming a nation capable of waging war and effectively negate Article 9 of the Japanese Constitution. China faces a structural shortage of tungsten due to aging mines and a lack of investment. Export restrictions are further complicating the supply landscape. The sector was expected to face difficulties in 2026 even before the outbreak of conflict in the Middle East. China has not eased its position on these restrictions, according to the report.
