I usually use Ai to summarize YT videos if I do not know the source of the content. I find it strange that there is no other news source of this event. Only a FB post that I also will not click. There were similar cases reported in 2018, but nothing real now.

This video transcript details an incident where China rejected a shipment of soybeans from Argentina, suspecting their true origin was the United States. Prompted by high tariffs imposed by the US during a trade war, American soybean producers reportedly attempted to circumvent these restrictions by re-exporting soybeans through Argentina. Chinese customs utilized advanced technology to detect anomalies in protein content and packaging, uncovering the attempted fraud. The rejection has strained trade relations and prompted Argentina to seek better traceability systems with China, while also highlighting the broader negative impact of tariff wars on global trade and innocent businesses.

Based on the [YT] sources provided:
The event where China rejected a cargo ship loaded with 300,000 tons of soybeans from Argentina happened in April of this year. The sources establish a timeline that includes events occurring in February and March 2025, and import data up to February 2025. Therefore, "April of this year" in the context of these sources refers to April 2025.
Regarding a newspaper article link, the sources provided are excerpts from the transcript of a YouTube video. They describe the event and provide details about it, but they do not include any links to newspaper articles or other external news sources.

Only this from Bloomberg reporting that Argentina has arranged to ship their own Soy to China during this time given the advantages the US has provided with their tariffs, https://www.batimes.com.ar/news/eco...argentina-crops-as-it-skirts-us-tariffs.phtml
