Finland and the United States deepen cooperation in technology and critical minerals
Published
Finland and the United States have signed an agreement on technology cooperation called the Technology Prosperity Deal (TPD). The two governments also agreed on a framework document concerning critical minerals, known as the Critical Minerals Framework.
The purpose of the technology agreement is to increase cooperation in the development and adoption of new technologies. Critical minerals are substances needed, for example, in the manufacture of batteries, electronics and clean energy equipment. Their availability is important for many industries.
The agreements aim to strengthen the security of supply of both countries and support the economic development of each. More detailed information on the content of the agreements and their impacts is to be published later.
Finland's and the United States' cooperation thus continues in new areas. The agreements show that relations between the two countries in the fields of technology and raw materials are deepening.
