Want this question answered?
Electrons moving is an electric current. An electric current moving at an angle to a magnetic field will produce a Force.
The relation between electric current and drift velocity is that they both happen to involve electrons moving opposite of the electric field. The electric field must also have a conductor.
Moving electric charges will interact with an electric field. Moving electric charges will also interact with a magnetic field.
They're both true, but I'm not comfortable with the way they're stated. I would have said: -- Electric current through a wire produces magnetic force. -- Moving electrons constitute an electric current, whether or not they're moing througha magnetic field.

In a conductor - only if the field is moving, thus changing.

The answer is an electrical field.

When there are moving electrons, there is a magnetic field. No moving electrons = no magnetic field.We can make an electromagnet by passing an electric current (= moving electrons) through a wire coil. And that field may be strengthened further by placing a soft iron core inside the coil.There are also permanent magnets, with which you're already familiar - a compass, a fridge magnet and so on. These are materials in which the electrons have aligned themselves so their spins are parallel. (More moving electrons - even if they are just spinning).The commonest members of this group are iron and nickel materials, though a dozen or so materials may aid the strength of the magnet.Electromagnetic machines are such things as electric generators and motors, relays and solenoids.The Earth has a magnetic field, generated we believe by electric currents flowing in the mantle, roughly parallel to the Equator.
They are opposite "sides" of the electromagnetic force. A moving magnetic field produces electricity and a moving electric field produces magnetism. Should both move alternately they produce electromagnetic radiation.
Electrons have a charge. Any moving charge creates an electric field, e.g. electricity moving through a wire causes a magnetic field around the wire, or the earth rotating creates a magnetic field which causes a compass to point north. Similarly all electrons have a spin factor. similar to the earth rotating, the spin of electrons create a magnetic field around the electron.
A magnetic field is induced by moving electric charges, either by an actual electric current, or the way that electrons (charged particles) spin around the nucleus [in the case of magnetic materials becoming magnetized].
