Мексиканські транспортні компанії розпочали в понеділок безстроковий загальнонаціональний страйк на знак протесту проти відсутності безпеки на автошляхах, крадіжок вантажів, вимагання та зростання експлуатаційних витрат. Демонстрації заплановані у великих логістичних вузлах уздовж кордону між США та Мексикою. Страйк, організований Національною палатою вантажних перевезень (CANACAR) та іншими галузевими організаціями, передбачає проведення акцій по всій території Мексики, зокрема в Нуево-Ларедо, Рейносі, Монтерреї, Тіхуані та Мехіко.

Протягом багатьох років Захід шукав технологічний вихід із залежності від рідкісноземельних металів. Інженери розробили нові конструкції двигунів, альтернативні хімічні склади магнітів та матеріали, що зменшують або навіть виключають потребу в деяких критично важливих мінералах. Щоразу, коли Китай посилює експортний контроль, ці зусилля отримують новий сплеск уваги. Вони варті того, щоб їх реалізовувати. Але вони не вирішують питання, яке виробники мають розв'язати сьогодні. Виробнича потужність стала найдефіцитнішим активом номер один. Це усвідомлення стимулює один із найамбітніших промислови

Why it matters: Inconsistent interpretations of cabotage rules could remove experienced drivers from cross-border operations, tighten available capacity and create additional uncertainty for manufacturers, carriers and shippers that depend on predictable U.S.-Mexico freight flows.
