In a move connected to the current dispute between Japan and China, shipments of rare minerals have been delayed by Chinese officials.
The restrictions followed denouncement of American trade "actions" by Chinese trade officials.
What were these "actions"?
America was calling for an investigation into Chinese subsidies for "clean energy" exports and prior restrictions of rare earth shipments possibly being linked to forcing American companies to do more business in China.
I know we are in the hot part of campaign season, but this would be a major headline if we had an objective press.
The MSM love the Chinese and don't want to embarrass Obama, so this one is only a side story.
