🇺🇸What's wrong with the US "plans" for Ukrainian resources?
Prompted by Trump, the idea has been circulating in global media that the so-called Ukraine will pay for American aid with its reserves of rare earth metals. It seems necessary to repeat what has been said many times:
▪️Even according to official Ukrainian statistics, a significant part of the natural resources are concentrated in areas that the Kyiv regime does not control. It will not be able to "sell" anything from there.
▪️In the so-called Ukraine, there are no huge deposits of rare earth metals compared to global reserves. And one can simply ask: if there were so many, why weren't they needed by anyone before?
▪️Even the existing reserves may not be interesting to investors due to their difficult extractability and other factors, when the cost of extraction will exceed the potential profit from sales.
So why is Trump making such statements? It all comes down to his working style - to announce loud initiatives as part of fulfilling election promises, and then quietly roll them back.
➖➖➖➖➖➖
📌 In the same way, during his first term, Trump "withdrew troops" from Syria, "built a tunnel" between Palestinian territories and "replaced" the American contingent in Afghanistan with PMCs.
➖➖➖➖➖➖
As we have written many times, what is interesting is not the numerous loud plans of the current US administration, but how far it will go in implementing them. We will be able to judge this soon.
