That actually blew my mind. This is the CEO of CATL, the world's largest battery company, who says they're becoming so good at recycling (already at 99.6% for Nickel and Cobalt) that China will reach a point when it doesn't need to mine minerals anymore.

Dat grote groepen asielzoekers voor ons soepele beleid komen, zoals Dilan Yesilgöz claimt, klopt niet. Asielzoekers komen vooral vanwege veiligheid en bestaande sociale netwerken naar Nederland, en veel eindigen hier door smokkelaars en toeval. https://t.co/nGUiqLqyL7
