I always found the whole deal rather strange since much of minerals are either in a war zone or under Russian control and both the US and Ukraine have the option to walk away from the deal whenever it suits either party.

Any payoff for the US is a long way down the road and any implicit security guarantee based on US interests in Ukraine is dubious at best.

Don’t care. Fuque Ukraine AND Russia. I hope they kill each other to the last breathing creature.

Ukraine subverted the last president and stole hundreds of billions from the USA to bribe demoncrap politicians. And Russia has sucked since the Tsars.

No loss to the world if both disappear.

Cutting Zelensky out of the loop certainly helps, doesn’t it?

I hope the agreement contains language that requires reporting on how much US taxpayer funds were funneled back to the McCain family, Lindsey Graham, Schumer, Klobuchar, etc.
It had to be in the billions.
