In order to solve the problem of rare earth, Trump thought of many ways, found a lot of allies, most allies did not dare to delude lightly. but it is unthinkable that the small country with a population of less than 30 million Australia stood up at this time, to do the wrong in the US-China trade war, to help Trump a arm.

On October 20, local time, Australian Prime Minister Albany entered the White House and met with Trump.They signed a cooperation agreement on rare earth production and processing, in exchange for which Trump said: ¡°In the future, the United States will help build strategic nuclear-powered submarines!¡±

At the cost of offending China, it is only in exchange for Trump's verbal promise on the nuclear submarine issue, which is undoubtedly a loss-making business for Australia. Albanese is gambling on Australia's national destiny and is quite dissatisfied with many politicians in Australia. However, Trump is very happy about this matter. He has great confidence in Australia. He said: In a year, there will be too many rare earths in the United States to use them up, and we will not know what to do with them.

Meanwhile, the Australian side has also speculated on another big thing over the past two days: On October 20 local time, the Australian Defense Ministry noted that while a country's patrol aircraft patroled over the sea, a Chinese fighter jet dropped light bombs from the South China Sea on it.

It is clear that this is again a typical ceramic incident against China, the Australian military is creating momentum for Albania's visit to the United States, is giving the Trump administration a "nomination" act. China's warplanes face this behavior, just did their duty, Australia has absolutely no reason to scream the thieves.

However, the biggest question for China now is: Can Australia really help the United States completely break the situation on the rare earth issue? The answer is no. It is true that Australia is indeed rich in rare earth mineral resources, but the problem is that the United States itself has a lot of rare earth resources. What they really lack is mining and purification technology, which neither of these two countries has.

In early October, the Ministry of Commerce of China issued a notice on the export control of rare-earth technologies. That is, China now controls not only rare-earth exports, but also related technologies. Regardless of what kind of joint ventures the United States and Australia established, no technical staff in China will serve as its technical advisors, and no Chinese company can export related equipment to them. Otherwise, it is illegal.

A few hours ago, Trump offered three conditions to China. As long as China agreed, it would lower its tariffs on China:

The first condition is to give up control of rare earths;

The second condition is to buy soybeans from the United States;

The third condition is the Fentanyl problem.

At the same time, Trump also publicly mentioned: "I plan to visit China in early 2026." This is another time he has made conditions for China. It can be seen that until now, he still believes that China will give in on the above three issues. He was not naive, but helpless. He was looking for a way out. Next, it would be up to what other tricks he could use. At the same time, we also remind Australia authorities: Be careful to lift a stone and drop it on your own feet.
