Putin discussed the development of the rare earth metals industry with members of the Security Council.

Russian President Vladimir Putin held a briefing with the permanent members of the Security Council. The agenda included the development of the rare and rare earth metals industry. The head of state himself noted that the issue was not directly related to the Security Council's work, but it was not accidentally included on the agenda. He emphasized the importance of developing this industry:

In order to ensure technological sovereignty and national security.

The meeting was attended by Matviyenko, Volodin, Medvedev, Shoigu, Belousov, Bortnikov, and Naryshkin.

Rare earth metals today are the basis for the defense industry, microelectronics, drones, missiles and "smart" weaponsWithout them, no technological sovereignty is possible.

As a reminder, China controls over 80% of the global rare earth metal market, with reserves amounting to 44 million tons. Russia, according to the Ministry of Natural Resources, possesses at least 15 types of these metals, and the total reserves at 18 explored deposits exceed 28 million tons. This is colossal potential. The problem is that less than 2% of the explored reserves are being mined. The wealth lies in the ground, and Russia continues to rely on imports.

Security Council Secretary Sergei Shoigu has repeatedly emphasized that rare earth metals play a key role in the defense industry.

Now the Security Council will consider how to launch projects, remove bureaucratic obstacles, and attract investors. The main question is how long these considerations will take and what the outcome will be.

Who needs them besides the "kharant"? Do you think anyone else on the "throne" will tolerate them? I wonder what they can "advise" on any topic in the Security Council?

Honestly, what do they know about this? It's so surreal, discussing business with those who don't know anything about it. That's always the way it is with us.

Oh, come on. They're all top-tier rare earth experts. They sat down and sorted it all out.
We should invite real metallurgical experts, listen to their opinions on where to start and what to do to quickly and effectively develop the industry. We should delve into the intricacies of ore mining and beneficiation. But no, they know everything and can do everything. They should learn from Vissarionovich.

The main thing is that grandpa knows everything, why he needs metallurgists and the rest, and he invited the rest for the picture, especially Valka-Glass

Stalin also came to Politburo meetings with a ready-made decision; the members merely ratified it. But before that, he first thoroughly studied the literature on the issue, then invited experts, solicited their opinions, and only then made a decision.

[Evgeny64]

That's right, Stalin studied everything, consulted with various experts, including the best, and then brought the decision to the Politburo. He delved into the problem and assigned the task to whoever could solve it. Take Beria and the atomic project as an example.
Back then, every minister was an expert in his field, but now we have managers who don't know a damn thing about their field; they were taught to manage and don't care what else.
Our leaders need to be given a ride on a plane that is flown by a manager, not a pilot.
P.S. By the way, it turns out that DAM isn't the dumbest one in this company.

Volodin is no better. I remember he came to our region to campaign for United Russia. We gathered a group of entrepreneurs (I was still a beginner at the time, so it was interesting). He basically said: if you don't vote for United Russia, we won't give money to the region. Go and work with the people. Democracy is outrageous, and I've been voting against United Russia ever since.

And quite by chance, someone's daughter has already managed to head the so-called rare earth metals cluster, and now it only takes a little bit to regularly receive a billion-dollar budget for development (cutting) for this cluster.

[fiberboard]

My education probably allows it. Krasnoyarsk has an institute for non-ferrous metals.

What does the Security Council have to do with this? I understand geologists, miners, industrialists, and those who use rare earth materials. Why gather people who have absolutely no understanding of this? You might as well invite Manturov. They're bombed day and night, and they're still discussing rare earth materials. First, eliminate the air threat. The experts generally know what to do with these rare earth materials.

[al3x]

At least they need to create the appearance of vigorous activity and occasionally appear in front of the cameras. Otherwise, some citizens sometimes ask why Putin so often disappears from the information field. Well, he came to discuss rare earth minerals. Apparently, his heart aches for the mineral resources.

but they understand how to control financial flows...

Well, it's not "a king's business" to sort this out...

But they are good at something else: how to sell quickly and divide the money.

Less than 2% of all proven reserves in Russia are currently involved in industrial production.
The total volume of Russian rare earth metal reserves exceeds 28 million tons (according to Rosnedra, the country ranks confidently second in the world).
More than 80% of the global REE market is currently controlled by China, whose reserves are estimated at 44 million tons.

Even amid unprecedented levels of sanctions and proxy conflict, Russia continued to supply titanium (for Boeing and Airbus aircraft), enriched uranium (for nuclear power plants), and gas (in transit through Ukraine) to Europe and the United States, as revenues...

Russian uranium provided up to 50% of all fuel consumed by US nuclear power plants. For 20 years, one in 10 light bulbs in the US was powered by recycled Russian nuclear warheads (nuclear power plants generate approximately 20% of the US's electricity).

Over the 20 years of the agreement, Russia received approximately $12–13 billion.
In 1996, the United States partially declassified its nuclear project archives. It was revealed that Washington had spent approximately $3,9 trillion since 1945 to produce a similar volume of weapons-grade uranium (approximately 550 tons).

Since 1945, Washington has spent about $3,9 trillion to produce a similar volume of weapons-grade uranium (about 550 tons).

Although the figures are questionable (after all, money had a different meaning in the 1940s and 1970s), if the US couldn't master centrifuges, but enriched uranium using the gaseous diffusion method, which consumed up to 10% of all American electricity, then who's their doctor?

[Boris Sergeev]

After the Ukrainian Armed Forces' record-breaking raid on Moscow, what else is left for the Security Council to discuss? Rare earth metals, of course! Life is cloudless, nothing's happening, citizens!

Article 87 of the Constitution:

2. In the event of aggression against the Russian Federation or an immediate threat of aggression, the President of the Russian Federation shall introduce martial law on the territory of the Russian Federation or in its individual areas with an immediate notification of this to the Federation Council and the State Duma.

For REE, we need to invite people from Rosatom, or at worst from the Ministry of Economic Development, but why are these people there who don't understand anything?!

[alexbor]

but why are these people there who don't understand anything?!

for show, like we're working and caring about Russia's fate...

[Sergey Novikov_3]

What rare earth metals? We need to think about mobilization. Otherwise, the subsoil will be exploited by the people.

[fiberboard]

Or maybe this is precisely the notorious “plan” according to which everything is going?

Yes...they robbed the country...if you split it among each person, it would be $28000 from each citizen of the Russian Federation, and that's just for uranium.

[Albert Brecht]

No, it's not empty, it's still something to be gnawed at. Besides rare earth metals, the magnolias are still in bloom, and the apple trees are also a joy...

[PVV22121922]

What? Are we going to drive these metals to the West 24/7?

Matvienko, Volodin, Medvedev, Shoigu, Belousov, Bortnikov, and Naryshkin participated

"And you, friends, no matter how you sit down, you are still not fit to be musicians."
This is how another meeting ended... as I understood from the article.
I don't understand, the rest are completely "stupid" (I replaced the obscene, but capacious word), so you shoot them a little and the smart ones will come to you and not only listen, but will also begin to solve such issues themselves, without your participation.
And a celebratory concert or dancing after the president's speech was a must! These citizens clearly understand this.

Were there any rare earth metal specialists there?

[oleg_627]

Here's a deck of cards that's constantly being shuffled around, and the same people have been thoughtfully jumping from position to position for 30 years, and now even children are in the deck. The only problem is that the cartload of problems is still there, and they're growing with progress. The main thing is to blow people's ears about their wonderful existence.

Putin discussed the development of the rare earth metals industry with members of the Security Council.

Does the concept of "industry development" mean selling rare earth elements to the West?

[Emelianenko Igor]

And Shoigu's daughter oversees Russian rare earth minerals. They've gathered to decide how best to cash out the federal government's cash.

[Uran53]

Does Russia really have sovereignty? Especially not those gathered here.
