Zelensky lands in US ahead of crucial meeting with Trump
NY Post ^ | 02/28/2025 | By Nicholas McEntyre

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky arrived in the United States on Thursday ahead of talks with US President Donald Trump on an agreement to develop minerals and rare earths, Interfax Ukraine news agency reported.

The two world leaders are expected to discuss the rare earths deal, protection from Russia and how European nations can share the burden of the costs of security for Ukraine.

“I want to coordinate our position with the American position. The war is in Ukraine, so for me, the Ukrainian position is the priority,” Zelensky said during a press conference in Kyiv Wednesday.

The deal will grant the US 50% of revenue from Ukrainian critical and rare-earth mineral sales, but does not include any security guarantees beyond the American economic stake.

A lady at work is from Ukraine. Early 50's. I told her yesterday, Zelenksy is coming to see Trump and I hope he wears a suit.

That set her off. It is war time. He does not need a suit. She votes for Trump but thinks everything Trump says about Zelensky is Russian propaganda and that Trump needs better foreign policy advisors.

Zelensky can do no wrong in her eyes.

Couldn’t agree more.
Show some respect for the Office.
(As much as I admire Musk, he should be told to remove that silly ball cap when in the Oval Office).
Ronald Reagan never removed his suit jacket out of reverence.

The ball cap keeps Elon centered. An autism thing. I am okay with it. He dresses up otherwise.

Would he really show PDJT disrespect by wearing his silly getup?

I’m predicting he wears a suit.

My view is, at least they are talking. Z wants to look like he just came from the trenches, but without the mud and blood. Whatever. Stop the killing, Ukraine needs to stop losing land and Russia now has some buffer. NATO has Finland’s border with Russia, 800 miles worth. Seeking to surround Russia was a bridge too far for Putin. Make a deal. I wonder how many of Ukraine’s refugees will come back.

Trump extends Russia sanctions, citing security threats February 27, 2025

President Donald Trump has extended for one year a series of sanctions against Russia over its invasion of Ukraine, citing ongoing threats to U.S. national security and foreign policy.

A notice released by the White House on Thursday confirms the continuation of measures first enacted in 2014 and expanded through multiple executive orders across several presidential administrations.

“The actions and policies addressed in these executive orders continue to pose an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States,” the notice states. “Therefore, in accordance with section 202(d) of the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1622(d)), I am continuing for one year the national emergency declared in Executive Order 13660.
