China has imposed new export controls on construction equipment, including tunnel-boring machines, among the largest and most complex industrial devices in the world. The machines are used to build subways and drill roads and railways through mountains, and China dominates the global market for them. The move is drawing attention to how far Beijing's export restrictions now reach, extending beyond chips and critical minerals into heavy industrial machinery.

Why now: China's expanding export controls are a live trade-tension issue and the extension to dominant heavy machinery marks a notable escalation
