I know you are being sarcastic, but China does not give two fucks where they source the rare minerals that consist within the batteries they manufacture.

Look up the cobalt mines in Africa. China has essentially reintroduced slavery back into Africa with this.

Suggesting that western manufacturers give any more of a shit about this is laughable.

Just an example of how ridiculous this justification is, Tesla sources raw materials from a Chinese supplier.
