Is this a devil‘s bargain? Not from Tesla‘s perspective since this will indeed accelerate the world towards a sustainable future.
IDRA was the only option for a Gigapress because their owners were brave enough to understand their potential.
Tesla contributed the alloys and implantation techniques to actually make it work.
From MAGLEV to electric grids there are countless major technological innovations that work because of joint cooperation between Chinese and Western enterprises.
It’s never been a one-way street.
All the political system commentary tends to ignore tangible benefits.
I explicitly do not comment here about politics in any place.
