This was just a little bit of lobbying/politicking that a Tesla representative gave a minor contribution to. If Tesla says "resources secured" that undermines the lobbying (by people who either are or want to be supplies to Tesla) and is the opposite of how to make friends.I don't understand how Tesla fails to comment on this: Exclusive: Tesla expects global shortage of electric vehicle battery minerals - sources - Reuters
Fairly simple "we've already secured key minerals for years"
In fact I'd wager that this particular bit of lobbying was not intended to have outside attention brought to it so the less Tesla says the happier the lobbyists will likely be.
