> China’s Ministry of Commerce called on the United States to immediately remove Section 232 tariffs on drones and drone components, saying they harm Chinese companies and disrupt cooperation across global drone supply chains. The ministry described the measures as unilateralism and protectionism carried out under an overstretched national-security rationale, and said China firmly opposes them.
