Good for him.
Nor should he – he should just tell trump to F off. Trump is as trustworthy as putin.
What the actual fuck is this timeline. US has become the school yard bully, demanding half of everyone else’s wealth for “security” reasons.
So Trump wants Europe to pay for Ukraine’s defense but also wants 50% of Ukrainian minerals? For what exactly?
Zelensky has been impressive through this whole thing. He’s represented and protected Ukraine as well as anyone could.
If I were him I would offer 100% of the minerals for 100% of the land back. Including Crimea. Too bad the US is fighting 2 other wars at the moment. One against paper straws and one against LED light bulbs. A 3rd one would probably be too much to handle even for ‘murica.
The resources deal was supposed to be in exchange for continued US support. What exactly is Ukraine supposed to get in return from the Americans now Trump is pulling aid and trying to force Kyiv to fold?
Based
Sign a contract with US now it’s like waiting money from that Nigerian Prince.
No shit. To be honest, Ukraine should pass a law banning any Us company from buying them
It would be foolish to sign a contract with a failed businessman and a lying fraud.
Looks like Putin’s plan for using Trump didn’t factor in stupidity of his American vassals.
No Noble Peace Prize for Trump this year.
The great weakness of the current US administration is that it wants maximum profit and close to zero cost. They are not turning on their allies as a matter of principle. It just so turns out that said allies are the most likely to concede to their demands. As for China, they will barely mention it, because any kind of interaction with China will most likely incur costs and yield minimal profit.
trump is a greedy bastard
Who were the members of this Congressional delegation? Republican, for certain, but their names would be important to know.
Good
Good for him. Fuck Moscow agent orange
That’s the standard American play, no? Foster a nice local war, then grab all the good stuff…It’s all fun and games when it’s with Iraq, Libya, etc., but not so fun now when it’s a fellow European country
I see he’s running a redneck mafia protection racket now.
The details have to be worked out. Don’t sign for nothing
Nothing new there. An American delegation showed up to the Munich conference with a contract and Zelensky politely declined to sign it.
Ukraine supports an arrangement where US companies are involved in Ukraine’s mining extraction process and the United States supports Ukrainian security and sovereignty – not unlike how American oil companies work in Saudi Arabia, and Saudi Arabia receives American military and diplomatic support.
The reporting that is pushing the narrative that Zelensky has changed his mind on agreeing to minerals for security is disinformation.
I’m not sure why a congressional delegation would do this- it feels like there is chaos and dysfunction in Washington and these people thought they might be able to win Trump’s favor if they could pull this off. This looks like the sort of thing you’d see in a monarchy, with courtiers scheming for favor over each other.
Zelensky told Trump that Putin is a liar, and I’m sure Zelensky knows Trump is one too
