Eye on China, India and US conclude critical minerals and rare earths framework
India and the US have signed a framework to enhance cooperation on critical minerals and rare earths. This agreement aims to protect supply chains and reduce reliance on monopolies, particularly in light of China's dominance in this sector. The initiative is seen as a timely response to recent challenges faced by high technology industries in both countries due to China's export restrictions.
- ▪The framework was signed by Indian External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar and US Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
- ▪It aims to deepen bilateral cooperation across the critical minerals supply chain, from mining to recycling.
- ▪The agreement will help protect sensitive supply chains from coercive market practices and reduce vulnerability to single-source monopolies.
