The NATO and the EU (EU) have released lists of essential raw materials for security and technical setback purposes.
International Strategic Studies (IISS) Reflection Committee study found that all these important raw materials are needed for landscape, naval, space and guided sectors.
A modern war tank uses raw materials in their sensors, weapons, armor, hull and communications.
The sensors are increasingly complex and dependent on continuous important materials.
For example, glass and basic mirrors use silicon and porcelain, while infrared and night vision views – the main components of the lower choice environments – Mercury, Codmium, Geranium, Copper and Tando.
Copper and Germanium are classified as strategic European Union raw materials, which depend on imports of 17% and 42% respectively.
China has two largest products in the world, which is an average of 38% of global copper production and 83% of the global germ between 2016 and 2020.
Modern warships use a variety of important materials in their combination, although marine domination uses less than space, terrain or guided fields.
However, there is still a large need for many products that are considered a moderate risk to the distribution chain such as aluminum, iron (and steel) and copper.
For example, aluminum is widely used in the shipping structure, ie complainants, super stroke elements and inner boxes.
The EU depends on 58% of the import of aluminum, and China is its largest manufacturer worldwide.
Between 2016 and 2020, China was due to an average of 56% of world aluminum production.
What are possible political answers?
To alleviate the risks of approval, the European Union is trying to promote the extraction, change and recycling of these important materials nationally.
In addition to the EU complex raw material law for 2024, each member states are developing its own national strategies.
The French military programming law for 2024-2030 allows the Defense Ministry to demand the creation of industrial reserves of the materials, components and half-watts that are essential for the armed forces.
In Spain’s Industrial Safety Industrial Strategy includes notes and recommendations to improve and strengthen both distribution chain and raw materials.
Similarly, Germany’s National Security and Security Industry Strategy opens the way to use a national ingredient fund to strengthen the security and security sector and make it better to monitor the important raw materials for the security sector.
Other European countries, including Italy, Poland and the United Kingdom, are developing strategies for exploitation of raw materials and national resources.
However, specific government documents in the security sector are still unavailable.
