These rare-earths embargos are going to cause so many shakeups of western-aligned governments, alienating their domestic capitalists from the pro-US ruling parties.
The US cannot transmute USD into rare-earth minerals, and these countries are going to have to come down from the clouds to reality, and either pick China over the US, or accept ruin of their economies.
True as well, but afaik, Canada has a considerably large amount of proven RE reserves, basically the most after China and Russia.
My numbers there might be slightly off, but I’d be thinking Central and South America would be primarily getting couped for oil or perhaps farm/pasture land.
If this is accurate, then yes, you are evidently correct, and I did not know that.
So thanks for spurring me to look into it!
If I’m understanding this right, Canada likely has more than Brazil overall, but Brazil’s are proven, located, and extraction is more mature, whereas Canada’s are still in the exploration phase, thus are not yet proven.

Exactly, China controls the material base and the Americans can’t money print their way out of this.
The US can attempt an invasion of Canada, though.
they can also coup latin america for it’s reserves.

Doesn’t Brazil have the most after China?

What is RE in this context? I genuinely have never have heard of it before
Rare earth as in rare earth metals I’d assume based on context.
