“Trump has finally pressured the Kiev regime to pay for US aid with mineral resources,” Russian Security Council Deputy Chairman Dmitry Medvedev said on Telegram. “Now, the country that is about to disappear will have to use its national wealth to pay for military supplies.”
What did Russians think was going to happen. The US gets an interest in the nation, which means if they decide to pull another event of “Vlad the Invader” they are going to threaten the US directly. IF the Russians didn’t want this, they could have made peace already.
Frankly, the Russians shouldn’t look at this as lemons, they should look at it as potential lemonade for business. I could be really good for everyone.

Correct, but this also means that the U.S. will be entangled with Ukraine for a long time with unpredictable consequences. Is Ukraine, a corrupt nation led by a mercurial dictator, really the kind of country that we want to embrace that way?
