U.S. President Donald Trump said on Monday he expects a U.S.-Ukraine revenue-sharing agreement on Ukrainian critical minerals will be signed soon.

I would not hold my breath if I were Trump.
Nor would I schedule a Ceremony at the White House.

Ukraine and Russia are a European problem.

Just stay out of it.

Let the Principals handle it.

Better yet - let the Principals PAY for it!

“I would not hold my breath if I were Trump.

Classic Trump. If the deal doesn’t happen soon, Trump can claim it’s because someone else is holding up the works.

He's doing this for a couple reasons...it's a way to watch what Ukraine is doing...and

We're going to get our money back....plus....

To sit and say...well, you didn't give us that much...and I don't know where it went..."Z" likes playing this provocative game for some reason...

It's not over..."Z" is an a**.

No, he doesn't. Not yet. And considering that the idea seems to be giving no security guarantees, and no more money, I don't seem him getting them.

Ukraine is not going to give up valuable minerals and energy rights in exchange for literally nothing.

Why not?

Because either someone else will offer him a better deal, or they'll simply keep the assets themselves.

Totally different context intended: Urban dictionary: "Minerals"
