Supply chain decoupling likely to remain partial: economist

DUBLIN, May 11 (Xinhua) -- Despite the United States (U.S.) and its allies steadily broadening the scope of their export control measures, the ensuing supply chain decoupling is likely to remain only partial, Fukunari Kimura, a professor of economics from Japan's Keio University, told an economic forum in Dublin on Thursday.

Organized by the University College Dublin (UCD) Irish Institute for Chinese Studies and the Confucius Institute, the two-day forum on the impact of deglobalization brought together over 30 economic experts and scholars from 14 countries and regions including China, Japan, South Korea, Vietnam, Britain, France and Sweden.
