Chinese industry to seek probe into EU pork imports, Global Times reports
BEIJING (Reuters) -Chinese companies plan to request that authorities open an anti-dumping investigation into imports of some pork products from the European Union, the state-backed Global Times newspaper reported on Saturday, citing an unidentified "business insider". China imported a total of 1.55 million metric tons of pork in 2023 with the EU accounting for more than half of the total, customs data showed. The report comes as trade tensions between the EU and China intensify, with the EU conducting investigations into various imports from China to protect home-grown manufacturers.

China gears up to make a deal with Europe as EV tariffs loom
The European Commission's expected move to hike tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles is set to kick off a round of talks that Chinese executives hope will soften the blow for the world's biggest EV industry. But both Europe and China have reasons for wanting to strike a deal. China’s EV industry needs profitable exports to the world's third-largest economy to counter falling margins at home, while German automakers want access to China's auto market and EV partnerships to drive costs down.

Post-COVID, China is back in Africa and doubling down on minerals
China's flagship economic cooperation program is bouncing back after a lull during the global pandemic, with Africa a primary focus, according to a Reuters analysis of lending, investment and trade data. Chinese leaders have been citing the billions of dollars committed to new construction projects and record two-way trade as evidence of their commitment to assist with the continent's modernisation and foster "win-win" cooperation. But the data reveals a more complex relationship, one that is still largely extractive and has so far failed to live up to some of Beijing's rhetoric about the Belt and Road Initiative, President Xi Jinping's strategy to build an infrastructure network connecting China to the world.

Analysis-US tariffs on Chinese medical imports face industry doubt as alternative suppliers emerge
Higher U.S. tariffs on medical gloves, syringes and face masks from China are unlikely to make U.S. producers more competitive, as other low-cost suppliers are expected to rush in to fill the gap, industry executives said. Earlier this month, Washington announced steep tariff hikes on an array of Chinese imports including medical goods as part of a broader strategy to fuel domestic production and safeguard against supply shortages seen during the COVID-19 pandemic. But industry executives argue tariffs are unlikely to boost the competitiveness of local producers, as Chinese firms could reroute shipments via overseas supply chains, and suppliers from other countries such as Malaysia could seize this opportunity.

Apple's iPhone sales in China jump 52% in April, data shows
Apple's smartphone shipments in China rose 52% in April from a year ago, extending a rebound seen in March, according to data from a research firm affiliated the Chinese government. The jump follows a weak performance by the U.S. tech giant in the world's biggest smartphone market earlier this year amid intensifying competition in the high-end smartphone category from local rivals like Huawei. Shipments of foreign-branded phones in China increased by 52% in April to 3.495 million units from 2.301 million a year earlier, data from the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology (CAICT) showed on Tuesday.

Explainer-Why does OPEC+ often clash over oil production capacity?
OPEC+ is working to agree oil production capacity for its member countries by the end of 2024, an issue that has created tensions in the past because each nation's output target is calculated from its notional capacity. Members of OPEC+ - comprising OPEC and allies such as Russia - tend to push for higher capacity to get higher output targets after the percentage cut required by the group is factored in. OPEC+ has been curbing output to support prices.

Exclusive-India's Reliance to buy Russian oil in roubles, sources say
India's Reliance Industries, operator of the world's biggest refining complex, has signed a one-year deal with Russia's Rosneft to buy at least 3 million barrels of oil a month in roubles, four sources aware of the matter told Reuters. The shift to rouble payments follows Russian President Vladimir Putin's push for Moscow and its trading partners to find alternatives to the Western financial system to facilitate trade despite U.S. and European sanctions. A term deal with Rosneft also helps privately run Reliance to secure oil at discounted rates at a time when the OPEC+ group of oil producers is expected to extend voluntary supply cuts beyond June.
