Batteries are very complex and they're actually very dangerous to make. You can't just pick people off an unemployment line and say, We just, you know, opened up a $2 billion battery factory."
"When they come in, some of these factories make very very complex, very highly sophisticated equipment. They've got to bring people in with them for a period of time. They'll teach our people how to do it, but even for a fairly long period of time, they're going to need expertise to be successful. And we're going to let people know.

Officers detained workers and shackled their legs on the factory floor, triggering outrage in South Korea and urgent negotiations that led to the workers being flown home on a chartered flight. President Donald Trump said he opposed how the situation was handled and emphasized that complex manufacturing, especially battery production, requires specialized foreign workers during initial phases. He argued that foreign investors must be permitted to bring experts who will train U.S. workers and provide needed technical expertise.
