China is allegedly running a fake information campaign against US and Canada and targeting their businesses, calling them ‘environmentally irresponsible’, according to analysts, who also claimed that pro-China groups are using this strategy to only distract the world away from its exploitation of Myanmar’s rare earth materials, ANI reported.

After the US Department of Defense awarded contracts to Australia’s Lynas Rare Earths Ltd, Canada’s Appia Rare Earths & Uranium Corp, American company USA Rare Earth and threat intelligence firm Mandiant to establish domestic processing capabilities for light rare earth elements, China noticed an opportunity and launched a false information drive.
