flag Congo's President Félix Tshisekedi told Scripps News that his country is ready to supply the U.S. with critical minerals like cobalt—key for electronics, electric vehicles, and clean energy—but stressed that this cooperation hinges on American support to stabilize eastern Congo, where ongoing conflict disrupts mining. flag The Democratic Republic of Congo produces nearly three-quarters of the world’s cobalt and holds over half of known global reserves, making it pivotal to global supply chains. flag Tshisekedi emphasized that peace and security in the east are essential for safe, sustainable mining and expanded economic partnerships.
