Competing with China for Africa's Critical Minerals

 The European Council on Foreign Relations published on 7 November 2024 a paper titled "Material World: How Europe Can Compete with China in the Race for Africa's Critical Minerals" by Sarah Logan.

The author argues the European Union must enhance support to European companies to invest in securing access to critical raw materials.  This should include new financial incentives and measures to protect against China manipulating prices on international markets.
