The 7-year US-China trade war has entered a dangerous new phase with Trump doubling tariffs to 30% and China retaliating where it hurts most—critical minerals. These "21st century oil" resources are essential for everything from AI development to semiconductor manufacturing, and China controls 60% of global production and 85% of processing capacity.

This analysis breaks down how US export controls on advanced tech have backfired, spurring Chinese innovation in AI while American companies face rising costs and supply chain disruptions. We explore Beijing's strategic advantage in critical minerals, the failure of tariffs to achieve their stated goals, and the contrasting approaches to global influence: US military projection versus China's Belt and Road infrastructure investments.

Are we witnessing the decline of US technological supremacy? Can America find alternative supply chains before it's too late? And what happens if this economic standoff escalates into something more dangerous? Watch to understand the tech sovereignty battle that will shape our digital future.
