Disability ministers will ‘champion’ inclusion and accessibility, says TimmsBANGKOK -- China announced Tuesday it is banning exports to the United States of gallium, germanium, antimony and other key high-tech materials with potential military applications, as a general principle, lashing back at U.S. limits on semiconductor-related exports. The Chinese Commerce Ministry announced the move after the Washington expanded its list of Chinese companies subject to export controls on computer chip-making equipment, software and high-bandwidth memory chips. Such chips are needed for advanced applications. The ratcheting up of trade restrictions comes as President-elect Donald Trump has been threatening to sharply raise tariffs on imports from China and other countries, potentially intensifying simmering tensions over trade and technology. China's Foreign Ministry also issued a vehement reproof. “China has lodged stern protests with the U.S. for its update of the semiconductor export control measures, sanctions against Chinese companies, and malicious suppression of China’s technological progress," Lin Jian, a Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson, said in a routine briefing Tuesday. "I want to reiterate that China firmly opposes the U.S. overstretching the concept of national security, abuse of export control measures, and illegal unilateral sanctions and long-arm jurisdiction against Chinese companies,” Lin said. China said in July 2023 it would require exporters to apply for licenses to send to the U.S. the strategically important materials such as gallium and germanium. In August, the Chinese Commerce Ministry said it would restrict exports of antimony , which is used in a wide range of products from batteries to weapons, and impose tighter controls on exports of graphite. Such minerals are considered critical for national security. China is a major producer of antimony, which is used in flame retardants, batteries, night-vision goggles and nuclear weapon production, according to a 2021 U.S. International Trade Commission report. The limits announced by Beijing on Tuesday also include exports of super-hard materials, such as diamonds and other synthetic materials that are not compressible and extremely dense. They are used in many industrial areas such as cutting tools, disc brakes and protective coatings. The licensing requirements that China announced in August also covered smelting and separation technology and machinery and other items related to such super-hard materials. China is the biggest global source of gallium and germanium, which are produced in small amounts but are needed to make computer chips for mobile phones, cars and other products, as well as solar panels and military technology. After the U.S. side announced it was adding 140 companies to a so-called “entity list” subject to strict export controls, China’s Commerce Ministry protested and said it would act to protect China’s “rights and interests.” Nearly all of the companies affected by Washington's latest trade restrictions are based in China, though some are Chinese-owned businesses in Japan, South Korea and Singapore. Both governments say their respective export controls are needed for national security. China's government has been frustrated by U.S. curbs on access to advanced processor chips and other technology on security grounds but had been cautious in retaliating, possibly to avoid disrupting China’s fledgling developers of chips, artificial intelligence and other technology. Various Chinese industry associations issued statements protesting the U.S. move to limit access to advanced chip-making technology. The China Association of Automobile Manufacturers said it opposed using national security as a grounds for export controls, “abuse of export control measures, and the malicious blockade and suppression of China.” “Such behavior seriously violates the laws of the market economy and the principle of fair competition, undermines the international economic and trade order, disrupts the stability of the global industrial chain, and ultimately harms the interests of all countries,” it said in a statement. The China Semiconductor Industry Association issued a similar statement, adding that such restrictions were disrupting supply chains and inflating costs for American companies. “U.S. chip products are no longer safe and reliable. China’s related industries will have to be cautious in purchasing U.S. chips,” it said. The U.S. gets about half its supply of both gallium and germanium metals directly from China, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. China exported about 23 metric tons (25 tons) of gallium in 2022 and produces about 600 metric tons (660 tons) of germanium per year. The U.S. has deposits of such minerals but has not been mining them, though some projects underway are exploring ways to tap those resources. The export restrictions have had a mixed impact on prices for those critical minerals, with the price of antimony more than doubling this year to over $25,000 per ton. Prices for gallium, germanium and graphite also have mostly risen. ___ AP researcher Yu Bing in Beijing contributed to this report.

From Jelly Roll to TWICE, top acts hit 'Amazon Music Live' to spotlight their upcoming projectsClemson will be without a key contributor for the remainder of the season following an announcement from head coach Dabo Swinney on Wednesday. The No. 12 Tigers (9-2) are currently the first team out of the College Football Playoff race ahead of their major in-state rivalry game against No. 15 South Carolina (8-3) on Saturday. The non-conference matchup doesn't count towards the Tigers' chances at the ACC Championship Game, however, this year's Palmetto Bowl could serve as a potential play-in game depending on how the final week turns out. Clemson's offensive line has been banged up as of late, and the Tigers have taken another hit at the position. © Ken Ruinard / staff / USA TODAY NETWORK After starting at left tackle in the 51-14 win over The Citadel, Trent Howard will miss the rest of the season after sustaining a torn ACL in practice this week, according to Swinney. The senior was serving in place of Elyjah Thurmon, who suffered a season-ending foot injury against Pittsburgh. Additionally, left tackle Tristan Leigh and left guard Marcus Tate are questionable for Saturday’s game. Howard, who played in 10 games (3 starts) last season, would have likely started again, but Clemson and position coach Matt Luke will have to go another direction. The Tigers' offensive line is a pivotal part of this matchup given how Shane Beamer's Gamecocks get after the quarterback. Cade Klubnik and company will have to deal with a South Carolina front that sits second in the SEC with 39 sacks. Kickoff from Death Valley is set for noon ET (ESPN). Clemson is listed as a narrow 3-point home favorite, per ESPN BET . Related: Clemson's Chances at Reaching ACC Championship Game Revealed
THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: If the 'One Nation, One Election' bill becomes a law and gets implemented in 2029, the year of the next Lok Sabha elections, the tenure of many state governments, including the one in Kerala, will be shortened. As recommended by the Ram Nath Kovind committee, the bill's implementation would lead to synchronized elections, affecting the terms of various state governments. States like Andhra Pradesh, Odisha, Sikkim, and Arunachal Pradesh, which held Assembly elections alongside the Lok Sabha elections this year, will complete their full tenure. However, states like Haryana, Maharashtra, Jammu and Kashmir, and Jharkhand, with tenures ending in 2029, and Delhi, with a tenure ending in 2030, will witness a change in government approximately six months earlier. The next government in Kerala can rule for three years (Upcoming Assembly Elections and tenure of the next government) 2025: Bihar Can rule for 4 years will lose 1 year 2026: Kerala, Tamil Nadu, West Bengal, Puducherry Can rule for 3 years Will lose 2 years 2027: Uttar Pradesh, Goa, Punjab, Manipur, Gujarat and Himachal Pradesh Can rule for 2 years Will lose 3 years 2028: Karnataka, Telangana, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland, Tripura Can rule for 1 year 2 Options: Extend the government's tenure by one year Impose President's Rule for one year If govt faces early election If the government is forced to resign due to a hung assembly or a vote of no confidence, and an election has to be held, the term of the newly formed government will only last until the time of the general elections. Beneficial for exchequer and political parties 1. If elections are held together, the government's administrative expenses and political parties' campaign expenses will be reduced. 2. Utilizing human resources such as election observers, polling officials, and police collectively will save time and reduce workload. 3. Voters can avoid going to the polling booth multiple times. Migrant workers and those residing far away need to travel home only once in five years for this purpose, reducing the nationwide loss of human resources. Election Commission might seek more time Even if the political parties reach a consensus regarding the 'One Nation, One Election' system, the Election Commission is likely to seek more time for preparations. Although the Ram Nath Kovind committee has recommended implementing this system by 2029, the Election Commission considers it impractical. The Commission states that achieving political consensus and passing a bill in Parliament are only the beginning steps. The actual groundwork will commence only afterwards. Even if the bill is passed by late 2025 or early 2026, there will not be sufficient time to prepare. To conduct simultaneous elections, the number of voting machines would need to be doubled. The companies manufacturing these machines are not capable of producing such a large quantity within a short period. It would take up to three years to achieve this. Hence, implementing the reform by 2029 is deemed impractical.Caughie, Mathis Recognized by Wilburton Kiwanis Club
