China Controls Critical Minerals, Oil Molecules, and Chip Supply Through Strategic Dominance
Mario Nawfal Interviews
CHINA NOW CONTROLS "ALL THE WORLD'S MOLECULES" - w/ Jeffrey Currie
"China now controls all the world's molecules cuz it can throttle up and down, you know, 20 million barrels a day of molecules. And then and by the way, you could build pipelines, but I'm sure that the Iranians as they get reinforced with Russians and Chinese will take this some of these pipelines out. And now the Chinese control all the world's critical minerals. So they own the critical minerals, they control the molecules, and oh wait, they also can potentially control the chips through Taiwan."
An energy analyst warns that China has established comprehensive control over three critical global supply chains: rare earth minerals processing, oil refining capacity, and semiconductor production through Taiwan. The speaker reveals that Russia and China are blatantly resupplying Iran with defense goods, giving China additional leverage to throttle global oil supplies. He argues that even U.S. companies attempting to break free from Chinese rare earth dependence are using Chinese equipment and chemicals, making true independence impossible.
