    ukraine is losing all the s*t, land, people, resources.

    the sales of their minerals will put the comedian on a kill list from his own ranks.

    but be fair, i think the next us administration will void this agreement, it is a righteous thing to do. i really hope that we are on the right side of the history by not grabbing their resources .

    Ukraine doesn't have any resources

    I'm quite puzzled about all those minerals talk. USSR sucked dry Ukraine probably by 70s, then they had to go for Siberia to get any

    It was invented by Zelensky to get weapons in exchange for resources, which obviously don't exist

    now Trump demands those resources it's easy for Zelensky to give up something doesn't exist even if he doesn't get any weapons

    you're mistaken
    Ukraine is a dictatorship

    of course ukraine has something, in this case, important minerals. three letter agencies are not that stupid to ask. the question is how much it will cost to mine.

    Pretty laughable statement in view that Putin primarily invaded Ukraine in order to steal its natural resources for himself and his buddy oligarchs.

    it doesn't, ukraine specialization is agriculture, they have nothing else at least in the sense which will allow it to have positive profit

    USSR had super extensive geologic research. there is no chance they missed anything

    if Ukraine had anything decent they would develop it long time ago

    I don't understand why Trump plays this game - likely some setup for Zelensky - if so should unfold pretty quickly
