Trump Criticizes Court's Decision on Arizona's Copper Mine

Former President Donald Trump on Tuesday criticized the decision of the 9th US Circuit Court of Appeals to temporarily block a crucial land transfer for the Resolution Copper project in Arizona.

Trump took to Truth Social, labelling the San Francisco-based court a 'radical left court.' He accused opponents of the mining project of being 'Anti-American' and acting in the interests of rival copper-producing nations.

The court's decision hampers efforts by Rio Tinto and BHP to develop the copper mine, which has faced opposition from various groups. The ruling highlights ongoing debates over resource development and environmental protection.
