According to DER SPIEGEL, U.S. President Donald Trump announced plans to transform the U.S. into a 'mineral superpower' through significant investments in raw material production. This comes against the backdrop of shrinking weapon stockpiles in the Iran conflict and a push for greater independence from China.

According to n-tv Nachrichten, the plans include projects focused on critical raw materials and batteries. The announcement aims to boost domestic production while also supporting universities with mining programs.
