| contents | <p>In the contemporary world, critical mineral resources have become one of the main focal points of<br>geopolitical competition among major global powers. These resources, essential for the production of<br>advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence, renewable energy infrastructure, and military<br>industries, play a pivotal role in ensuring economic security and strengthening national power. The<br>United States and China, as two key players in this arena, have adopted different approaches: while<br>China, with a supply-driven and strategic perspective, seeks to expand its dominance over the global<br>supply chain by controlling domestic resources and investing in mines in developing countries, the<br>United States follows a demand-driven and security-focused strategy aimed at reducing its dependence<br>on China by developing domestic resources and securing supplies through strategic alliances.This study,<br>employing a descriptive-analytical method and based on library research, examines this competition and<br>analyzes its impacts on the global supply chain. The findings reveal that the structural differences in the<br>approaches of these two countries stem from their strategic objectives and economic needs; China aims<br>to expand its geopolitical influence through supply control policies and international investments,<br>whereas the United States focuses on securing its supply chain and reducing reliance on foreign actors<br>to maintain its technological and industrial superiority. Meanwhile, other countries such as Iran, with<br>their diverse mineral reserves, can adopt smart policies to leverage this competitive environment for<br>their national interests. Investments in advanced technologies, diversification of trade partners, and the<br>use of economic diplomacy can strengthen Iran’s strategic position in this global competition, enhancing<br>both economic security and national interests.</p> |
