A chaotic Oval Office press conference on Feb. 28 revealed a nonsensical U.S.-Ukraine deal for rare earths, baffling experts who knew Ukraine lacks viable deposits. Is Trump’s rare-earth strategy misguided political theater? With China dominating the market, why ignore U.S. resources? #RareEarths #PoliticalDrama
That’s great! Ukraine, make sure the wording of any agreement mentions specific rare-earth elements, none of which you actually have; then make a good show of being cowed and agree to “50% of all the rare-earth minerals on this list, thank you USA moar weapons now plz”.
Let Krasnov waste his time and hold his little baby press-conference; the world can hold back its laughter until the ink on the contract is dry. If it means Ukraine gets the help it truly needs, hopefully in 4 years this madness will be over and the agreement will remain as worthless to the US as it appears to be.
