Trump a perdu sa guerre commerciale

So, of course, the blockades on refined rare earths did a good part of the work, but China managed to replace the American market with others and diversify its customers and suppliers; now Trump is sneaking back in.
Rare earths and rare earth magnets are essential ingredients of modern industry. They are needed to manufacture drones, automobiles, airplanes, wind turbines, many electronic devices, and a great deal of military equipment; without them, some American factories would close, and military suppliers would be severely affected. A single submarine can require 4 tons of rare earths. It was entirely predictable that China would respond to an international dispute by militarizing its control over rare earths, as it did with Japan in 2010. Indeed, two days after Trump announced his Liberation Day tariffs, China announced export controls on certain rare earths. He then significantly expanded export controls this month.
