🌍 Congo Warns U.S.: Deliver Investments or We’ll Find New Partners

The Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) says it may seek alternative international partners if its minerals cooperation framework with the United States fails to produce real investment projects.

Key Points:

The December 2025 minerals framework is non-binding and still at discussion stage.

Congo holds major reserves of cobalt, copper, and lithium — critical for EV batteries and green tech.

Officials say no resources will be handed over without concrete projects and fair returns.

Expert Insight:

This signals rising resource nationalism in Africa, as mineral-rich nations demand stronger terms amid U.S.–China supply chain competition.
