The Summit of the Americas provides a prime opportunity for the United States government to work with its like-minded partners in the region to address a major strategic challenge: China’s growing influence over Latin America’s critical and natural mineral resources.
The Ninth Summit of the Americas, which is being hosted this week in Los Angeles, CA, brings together leaders from the countries of North, South, and Central America, and the Caribbean to promote democracy and human rights, increase competitiveness, strengthen regional security, and address key issues of the day such as clean energy and supply chains. Given the summit’s focus on “Building a Sustainable, Resilient, and Equitable Future,” securing the United States’ supply of critical and natural resources should be top of mind for the American delegation.
