According to the Beijing Daily app, on June 24, Foreign Ministry spokesman Guo Jiaqun presided over a regular press conference.
A reporter from Japan's Kyodo News asked that, according to reports, the Chinese government detained two Japanese employees in Dalian in May. The two were detained while exporting rare earth-related products. Is this incident related to the Chinese government's increased restrictions on rare earth exports?
Guo Jiaqun stated that it is understood that two Japanese individuals were detained by Chinese authorities for violating Chinese laws. The Chinese side has informed the Japanese side about the details of this case.
We emphasize that the Japanese side should educate and remind its citizens and businesses in China to comply with Chinese laws and regulations. Guo Jia Kun said.
