刚拿到稀土通行证，欧盟就来了招突击检查，还好中方留了一手

Group 1 - China has issued longer-term rare earth export licenses to some European companies, which initially seemed like a positive development, but the EU responded with investigations and inspections, indicating a sudden shift in stance [1][3] - The EU's actions are not merely trade disputes but are driven by political motives, particularly concerns over China's rising influence in key sectors like electric vehicles and digital technology [3][5] - The EU's investigations into Chinese companies are seen as a way to align with the U.S. amidst changing political dynamics, particularly with the return of Trump and his "America First" policies [5][10] Group 2 - China's approval of rare earth exports is based on the stability of global supply chains and international responsibilities, maintaining control over the export process [7][10] - The EU's discriminatory and uncertain business environment is causing unease among investors, including European companies that have deep ties with Chinese firms [10][12] - The relationship between China and the EU is characterized by mutual dependence, and any attempts by the EU to simultaneously benefit from China's supply while restricting Chinese companies will likely lead to a lose-lose situation [12][13]
