announcement came one day after President Xi Jinping had a video
call with his U.S. counterpart Joe Biden during which they

attack on Ukraine. Biden also said China, which has called for a

The rules aim to improve efficiency in the supervision of

specific details.
The rules will come into effect on Mar. 20.
