The U.S.- Ukraine Minerals Deal: How Rare Earths Are Reshaping Geopolitics
A New York Times opinion piece argues that Trump is taking a page out of China's foreign policy playbook in his pursuit of a minerals deal with Ukraine. The article’s author, Gracelin Baskaran, is director of the Critical Minerals Security Program at CSIS. Baskaran says we’re entering "a new era of minerals diplomacy." She joins the show to discuss why leaders are going after these resources.
