Council on Foreign Relations 200d ago

“Something that the U.S. could do if the Chinese go back to the well of rare earths and start to deny licenses is basically impose an equivalent regime on semiconductors,” says CFR China and emerging technologies expert Chris McGuire, as he testifies before the House Foreign Affairs Committee. McGuire’s statement is in response to a question from Representative Bill Huizenga (R-MI) regarding U.S. policy options to deter Beijing from weaponizing its rare-earth supply. McGuire further notes that requiring licenses would place restrictions on China’s technology industry and potentially influence its approach to rare-earth controls.
