o:35618 CHINA’S LOGISTICS AND TRADE BARRIERS AS A DETERMINANT OF CURRENT DISRUPTIONS IN GLOBAL ANTIMONY SUPPLY CHAINS en China, the leader in global antimony supply, dictates the market conditions for the sale/ purchase of this raw material on all continents. The current trade and logistics barriers that the most populous country in the world has introduced in this area have led to a deficit of this raw material affecting the supply chain management of the defense and battery manufacturing industries. The price of antimony has reached a record historical level, which makes it difficult to establish efficient and effective supply chain management in these industrial sectors from the aspect of cost efficiency. Considering that the defense industry is the driving force behind the growth and development of the world economy, it can be concluded that the long-term consequences of the long duration of the barriers will be incalculable for the GDP of many countries. Key words: China, trade and logistics barriers, antimony supply chain management, supply chain management of the defense industry, supply chain management of the battery manufacturing industry 1552099 10.5937/RKSPP2402107M 1552101 2683-443X 2025-01-15T13:14:20.810Z 44 no 46 Veljko M.
