At a regular press briefing on Sept. 10, MOFCOM spokesperson Huang Ling urged France to acknowledge China's position and immediately stop using the 'Anti‑Over‑Fast‑Fashion Law' to infringe the legitimate rights of Chinese‑funded enterprises. MOFCOM said the law and its implementing rules, cloaked as environmental and sustainability measures, set targeted standards and parameters that discriminate against and suppress Chinese cross‑border e‑commerce firms, risk seriously distorting fair competition, exceed environmental scope and carry clear protectionist intent; China has repeatedly expressed stern concerns to France.

Iran’s consulate in Hyderabad posted on social media early on the 9th (local time) that "tomorrow morning our reverse engineers will hold an unboxing ceremony," attaching an image of a Diving-LD unmanned submersible matching one the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has displayed as a spoil, Xinhua reported.
