Hey everyone I’m confused about this mineral ‘deal’ that the US is trying to enforce on Ukraine. Why would Zelenskyy even contemplate a deal with the US with the current fascist administration? obviously he knows they are liars and cheats and won’t uphold any part of the agreement they don’t want to. surely he wouldn’t tie up his national minerals for generations so they can get the old US stockpiles of weapons? unless he’s just talking the talk with no intention of carrying through? if I had Zelenskyy ear I would advise against doing any deal with the US and just try to get Europe on board asap. I understand the issue of shutting down starlink would currently severely impact Ukraine, but I can also see how starlink won’t be necessary in the near future as drones switch to AI and fibre, and a bunch of tech we don’t know about yet… so what’s the deal with the ‘deal’? surely it’s not being entertained seriously? or is it all bluster for Trump to feel he’s achieving something whilst the real power brokers get EU assistance? would love thoughts Slava Ukraini!
