The theory is that the US would actually fight for minerals(money) but not worthless things like democracy, people or values. Same logic Trump uses to try to annex Canada, Greenland etc.
Problem is Trump is though in words only, but weak irl, so he would just fold to Russia when they return.
isn’t Trump just pandering to his voters? Much like with Canada and Mexico, he is making it look like he is a strong leader who made such a great deal for the US. When in reality nothing is going to change. Are these all just publicity stunts and distractions 🤔
No country. None. Not even the US can rely on the US to defend anything of decency, morality, or democracy.
Every country must consider the US a threat & their attempts to take Ukraine’s future wealth- leaving them weak to future attack - is a deliberate plan, not just transactional.
Yes but they shouldn’t have to be extorted in the process to get the aid we committed to. The geopolitical advantage of helping Ukraine is keeping democracy viable for the world. It shouldn’t have taken the loss of Crimea and Georgia for this to fall on Ukraine.

Why should Zelensky give away his country’s mineral wealth?
