- My quote in @economist.com on rare earths: 'European firms have since had to give up trade secrets to China to get licences. “In 2025 China learned that it can disrupt Europe’s industries at little cost,” argues Joris Teer of the EU Institute for Security Studies, a think-tank' @euiss.bsky.social

- Veel te weinig aandacht voor benarde positie van Europa’s medtech, defensie, halfgeleider en vele andere vitale industrieën deze verkiezingscampagne! En al helemaal niet voor China die het tapijt daaronder wegtrekt… Gelukkig bij Boekestijn en de Wijk wel! @euiss.bsky.social @sbeverts.bsky.social

- China has hit Europe (almost) as hard as the US with rare earth and other material export curbs. Which of President Xi's goals does this serve? Find our latest @euiss.bsky.social analysis here: www.iss.europa.eu/publications... @sbeverts.bsky.social @euiss.bsky.social

- Great to speak to the FT, sharing quotes on geopolitical aims behind Chinese industrial policy - and what this means for Europe's chances of achieving reverse tech transfer through Chinese investments in EU, like CATL's in Spain www.ft.com/content/0f26... @euiss.bsky.social @sbeverts.bsky.social

- Entirely unsurprising. For years companies have told me they are “dual-sourced”, only pointing to first/second-tier suppliers. If USGS/EU say 100% heavy rare earth refining and 98% gallium production happens in CN, you are NOT dual sourced.

- Goed met @nieuwsuur.nl te spreken over Pekings afknijpen van grondstoffentoevoer naar onze vitale sectoren, in bijzonder de defensie-industrie. Dit ondermijnt Europa's herbewapening en dus ons afschrikkingsvermogen. @euiss.bsky.social nos.nl/nieuwsuur/vi...
