I’m excited to see how this plays out with the current push in Europe to move a lot more heavy industry “back home” in the next 5-10 years. The US is doing the same, so it might come down to who has enough qualified personell and material (or international relations to get material) to move industry most quickly. I think having good relations to countries with material resources is going to become much more important for Europe, US etc. in the next 50 years as it becomes less viable to just plain exploit previous colonies.
