Don’t drink the tea, Donald.
Don’t drink the tea, Donald.

At this rate, Trump will have to start buying lithium, rare earths from Vlad. Zelensky’s rare earth “ deal” with the Donald not going well. “ you don’t own it if you don’t hold it” comes to mind.
St Z is having a problem “ holding it”.
Russia Seizes Strategic Ukrainian Lithium Deposits, Escalating Global Resource Tensions
Highlights:
-Russian forces have captured key Ukrainian mineral assets, particularly the Shevchenkivske lithium deposit in Donetsk Oblast.
-The seizure potentially disrupts global supply chains for critical minerals essential to green energy and technological industries.
-Ukraine’s estimated $14.8 trillion mineral wealth is at risk, with significant implications for international economic stability.
So sad, to bad.
“At this rate, Trump will have to start buying lithium, rare earths from Vlad. “
ROTFLMAO!
US sets sights on $1.5 trillion lithium find in McDermitt Caldera’s record deposit

Industrial banditry in historical Russian Nazi way. At this rate the the west will have to auction seized Russian assests, place a cordon sanitaire around the filthy Russkiy Mir and deport all Russian nationals as a security risk. Be careful what you wish for, FRiend. You might just get it.
That happened 11 days ago and Russia already has another 3,000 bodies to send? Where are all the Russian bodies?
Funny thing. Sometimes it’s better to negotiate when someone gives you the opportunity the first time. Trump went to Putin in good faith, and Vlad the Invader stonewalled him. Maybe Vlad learned something from Syria and Iran. Maybe not, but testing Trump hasn’t turned out well.
We also just signed a rare-earth mineral deal with China.

In your wet dreams!
Lithium Reserves:
1. Bolivia
2. Argentina
3. USA

Que the photo of them shirtless, riding horses together.
So true. I hid mine in my mother's house house and some maintenance guy took them.
China signed the trade deal so now Russia has permission to stop the war. I firmly believe that part of the reason Zelensky and Putin continued the war was to inflict political damage on Trump. When there was no political damage to speak of they have now both decided to come to the table. The war will be over in a few months.
President Trump wins again, as always.
True, at what price? All the so called recent “finds” are pipe dreams. It takes at least five years ( most likely ten years ) to turn deposits into producing mines.
Ukraine’s lithium mine that Vlad acquired is a producing operation. $$$. If, as he
does with his huge energy market, discounts it China and Russia will hold the lion’s share.
I am sure he will discount it, not so sure about China. Checkmate.
Good input, thanks. Will be watching with interest.

AI Overview
Russia Targets Ukraine’s Key Lithium Reserves
Ukraine possesses significant, albeit largely untapped, lithium reserves, particularly in the Kirovohrad and Donetsk regions. While the country is estimated to hold about 500,000 tons of lithium, roughly 2% of global reserves, these deposits are not currently being mined due to a combination of factors including the war, lack of investment, and technological challenges.
