Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) has frequently brought up Ukraine’s rare earth minerals as a reason to continue fueling the proxy war.
“This war is about money. People don’t talk much about it. But you know, the richest country in all of Europe for rare earth minerals is Ukraine. Two to seven trillion dollars’ worth of minerals that are rare earth minerals, very relevant to the 21st century,” Graham told Fox News host Sean Hannity in November. “Ukraine’s ready to do a deal with us, not the Russians. So it’s in our interest to make sure that Russia doesn’t take over the place.”
Commentators here seem to be missing the main point - Trump is simply responding positively to Zelensky’s offer.

Ukraine previously offered U.S. access to its rare earth minerals in an effort to keep the Trump administration engaged in supporting the country militarily in its fight with Russia.
World history knows many battles fought for independence, but the last 10 years of Ukraine’s history represent a unique example of a ruthless struggle to become a colony.
So. All Putin has to do is say. “Don’t send any weapons to Ukraine and when we win, Russia will give you their rare minerals”, and Trump will roll over like a dog begging for a treat. Not that Trump ever knew right from wrong…
Collins: Trump has learned ‘a pretty big lesson’ from impeachment
He sure has… Fucking cow.
America is the enemy. Smaller states need to work closely together to resist the wanker states like Russia, America, and China.
If you aren’t Russia, China, USA or (to a lesser extent) Iran. Your only choice is which sphere of influence you want to fall under.
