“This trial is to get them to accept my claims and to gain the right to another Cfius review under a new administration,” he mentioned. “This differs from usual court cases.”

Biden nixing the deal has shaken religion in Washington’s assist for “friendshoring” — working with allies and companions to construct various provide chains to China and Russia inside US borders and elsewhere.
