Описание: Community:    / @econopoint  

Is Morocco the next global superpower in Electric Vehicles, or China's secret "Trojan Horse"? In this deep dive, we uncover how the Kingdom of Morocco is transforming into the world's battery factory by exploiting a massive geopolitical loophole. With billions in investment from Chinese giants like Gotion High-Tech and CNGR, Morocco has become the critical link allowing Chinese battery technology to bypass US tariffs and European carbon taxes.
We explore the "Morocco EV Gamble": a high-stakes strategy to leverage the country's vast phosphate reserves and free trade agreements to power Western EVs. But at what cost? From the draining of ancient aquifers to the risk of US sanctions, we reveal the dark side of this green energy miracle.
In this video, we cover:
The Loophole: How the US-Morocco FTA allows Chinese tech to qualify for IRA tax credits.
The Players: The strategic alliance between the Moroccan Monarchy (Al Mada) and Chinese industry.
The Cost: The water crisis threatening the very farms that feed the nation.
The Verdict: Why your next "American" or "European" EV will likely have a Moroccan heart.
