Check the water coming from the Tibetan Plateau and the resources fom the 3 Gorges...
I believe you’ll find that China is already the #1 producer of rare earths https://investingnews.com/daily/resource-investing/critical-metals-investing/rare-earth-investing/rare-earth-producing-countries/
Again, they need markets to buy their products

The NKS has more than just rare earths. They do need markets but thatbis on l y one th I g they neeed. The US trade wars against the rest of the world . North Korea is too small to be a major Market. South Korea is doing quite well for them th ok ugh, even better since the US started. slapping on tariffs and acting flaky with NK.

Actually, nK used to pay for Russian Tanks by supplying nK lumber jacks to work in Siberia chopping down trees. As a result, there are some small communities of nK in Russia.

That is a area I know quite a hot about. There are some Koreans f that were sent to Russia as payment but there are.many more that ended up there after runibg from the Japanese. Those folks are spread throughout The former Soviet Union , the found the Stalinist Soviet Union a fare safer place than Korea under the Imperial Japanese.. That is where The Kim family achieved power and where the orginal North Korean army was intialy raised.

The Chinese are very unlike to starve anymore And do you really want a major nuclear power to be desperate with starvation. Especially since you live in a nation with a Tiny military and population whose most powerful ally no longer cares about allegiances?
