Ukraine / Mineral Deals

https://www.cnbc.com/2025/04/18/ukraine-signs-outline-of-minerals-deal-with-the-us.html

Ukraine agreed to sign it before Trump and Vance tried to shame the Ukrainian president.

The Ukrainian president and people need help and the US can give it. It's not like you're giving something for nothing. Most countries that the US military helps has something to give like oil or minerals. Those that don't have oil or minerals generally don't receive military help from the US.

Neo colonialism and empire is not help.


And this is not really something new. Under Biden Zelensky violated the Ukrainian constitution to sell of their farmland to American and European agricultural mega corporations.

And the exchange between Donald Trump/Vance and Zelensky was edited on most outlets to start at a point in the conversation that made Zelensky look like a victim. This is no accident when you cut out the first several minutes of the exchange.

The meeting was to sign the mineral deal (something I don't actually agree with) but Zelensky decided to use a room full of live reporters to go rogue and make demands on military support and the war.

Trump and Vance eventually got pissed and retaliated.

The problem is Zelensky and Trump are far too much alike.

They both have massive egos, need to be the centre of attention, and they both think they can dictate to the rest of the world.

A clash of two massive egos is no surprise.

And to be clear no president of the USA would tolerate that.

If Biden or Harris had been in the room the big difference is Zelensky would have been taken to the wood shed behind closed doors later.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow So much “whataboutism”…

So little proof.
@justanothername Umm no. Words have definitions. Just throwing around terms doesn't make it correct.


I simply stated facts that were misrepresented here and provided context when leaving out the context is used to present a false narrative.

Lies by omission are still lies.
@justanothername And I am sorry the fact don't fit your Red Dawn fantasies.
