💨 Abstract

The United States is open to exploring critical minerals partnerships with the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), rich in cobalt, lithium, and uranium, in a bid to reinforce regional stability. This comes after a Congolese senator approached U.S. officials with a minerals-for-security deal proposal. The U.S. is keen on boosting private sector investment in DRC for responsible and transparent mineral development.
