It’s cheaper to buy from countries that don’t have high regulations like we have in the EU. For example mines in Sweden are very expensive to operate because of safety regulations (which they should have).

Sure, we haven’t shafted our relationship with China like the US. We can buy their excess that they’re not sending to the US now.

Canada has loads of raw materials/resources we’d love to sell to Europe.

As always Europe let others do everything. No more.

Any raw materials you need are on the open market. If you have difficulties processing them, set up a processing plants in Asia or Australia.

Perhaps we can increase funding for ESA while we are at it? Maybe win a space race in the final frontier and hopefully beat the US to finding raw material deposits outside of our planet? As the materials are becoming increasingly scarce, it might help to already look ahead.

Canadian here, we’ve got loads of what you want and conveniently are looking for closer partnerships with other western nations that aren’t the US. Maybe we can join you someday

We should annex Greenland. I hear they’ve got lots.

If only there were countries looking to divert trade away from the US that are rich in minerals like Canada and China.

Check the Africa…ups they dislike you because of what you did in the past right !!! South Asia ? Ah joking. What a brilliant history Europe has which allows it to cooperate with anyone so easily.

Buy from Australia too, it’d be nice to not be so dependant on China

Psst, Greenland do you have some of those tasty minerals?

With fracking Europe has loads of gas. Probably oil too. But it would take years or even decades.

Doesn’t China have some for us now after the US export ban ?
