Structured register of government actions in the geoeconomic space — export controls, tariffs, sanctions, FDI screening, subsidies, industrial-policy laws — cross-referenced into the country, minerals, and ETF surface. Charter: docs/IPTM_CHARTER.md.
Severity 1-5 is the qualitative impact rating (1=minor, 5=structural). The bilateral-trade-grounded quant scorer is the next IPTM milestone. RBI (Register Breadth Index) is a complementary structural-breadth indicator from scripts/py/iptm/breadth.py; divergence between RBI and severity is itself informative (high-sev / low-RBI = strategic chokepoint; low-sev / high-RBI = broad but shallow). Every action has at least one primary source URL. Verify-or-don't-file. See also themes, timeline, graph, sankey, map, country exposure, sector exposure, material exposure (+ graph), weekly briefs, portfolio scan, escalation monitor, trans-shipment hubs. Internal triage tools (RSS-poller candidate feed, source-feed health) live under /admin/candidates + /admin/sources. Subscribe via Atom feed (accepts ?country=CN, ?material=lithium, ?issuer=BIS, ?type=export_control, ?etf=SOXX, ?company=NVDA, ?minSeverity=4, ?year=2026, ?q=…) or pull /api/iptm/actions.
The MoEFCC Impact Assessment Division issued an Office Memorandum on 8 September 2025 categorically exempting all mining projects involving atomic minerals (uranium, thorium and the 12 minerals under the Atomic Energy Act 1962), the 30 critical minerals notified by the Ministry of Mines on 28 June 2023, and separately designated strategic minerals from the mandatory public-consultation stage (para 7(i)) of the EIA Notification 2006, invoking the existing national-defence and strategic-considerations clause. Exempted projects will instead undergo comprehensive appraisal by the relevant Sectoral Expert Appraisal Committee (SEAC/EAC) at the central level regardless of project size, bypassing the standard Category-A/B thresholding architecture. The measure was issued in response to formal requests from the Ministry of Defence (MoD) and the Department of Atomic Energy (DAE), and directly accelerates the approval pipeline for the National Critical Mineral Mission (Rs 34,300 crore, 2025-2031).
On 4 June 2025 the Verkhovna Rada adopted Law No. 4473-IX, amending the Customs Code of Ukraine to exempt from import (customs) duty goods brought into Ukraine's customs territory for security and defence needs. The law entered into force on 15 June 2025. Coverage includes optical fibre and fibre-optic cable imported by enterprises for the manufacture or repair of unmanned aerial systems (drones) and other defence equipment, as well as materials supplied to the Armed Forces of Ukraine and other authorised defence entities, removing a cost input for Ukraine's wartime domestic drone-manufacturing base. A companion law, No. 4474-IX, grants a parallel VAT exemption for the same import category.
On 4 June 2025 the Verkhovna Rada adopted Law No. 4474-IX, amending subsection 2 of section XX ("Transitional Provisions") of the Tax Code of Ukraine to exempt from value-added tax the import into Ukraine's customs territory of goods for security and defence needs, including optical fibre and fibre-optic cable used in the manufacture and repair of unmanned aerial systems (drones). The law entered into force on 15 June 2025. It is the VAT-side companion to Law No. 4473-IX (filed separately), which grants the equivalent customs-duty exemption for the same import category — the Rada split duty relief and VAT relief into two parallel statutory amendments passed the same day.
