I'd share all those non-minable deposits with Trump too. The only one that;s interesting is the one we don;t know how to separate yet. Now - give Zelensky 50 billion in aid and 300 billion in weapons. Sound fair.

I see. You'd rather get nothing and still pay them billions in aid.

Or send the US military. Cheaper than using the Ukrainian military--right?

I get something worth much more than Trump's "deal" if we back Ukraine and stare Putin down - something you apparently don't understand.

Anyway. Back to the man subject:
https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/world/what-minerals...Ukraine's minerals fact box
Ukraine is sitting on one of Europe’s largest deposits of critical minerals, including copper, nickel, lithium, and titanium.
It is estimated that about five per cent of the world's critical raw materials are in Ukraine, according to United Nations data.
Ukraine also has significant quantities of rare earth metals, a group of 17 elements required to make electronics, wind turbines, weapons and other essential products.
Examples of rare earth metals include holmium, ytterbium and dysprosium. While these aren’t rare, extraction and storage is very complicated.
Some mineral deposits have been seized by Russia following the 2022 invasion.You people wanted the United States to have skin in the game. Now we do.

The Ukraine provided 7% of the world's titanium in 2019. That's kind of an important element.
But don't take that from me.
https://rmis.jrc.ec.europa.eu/uploads/220616_Brief...Titanium metal is widely used in the aerospace industry because of its high strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance
and thermal stability. Titanium is also essential in the defence sector and critical infrastructures such as the chemical industry
and power generation. Titanium is traded at different stages of processing. Wrought titanium, e.g. mill products, is the
principal form in which titanium metal is marketed. Titanium was added to the EC’s list of Critical Raw Materials in 2020.
Where do the Euros get their titanium?
At present, titanium remains exempt from restrictions on
trade with Russia. Direct sanctions on imports of titanium
and titanium products after Russia's invasion of Ukraine are
not imposed so far (June 2022) by the EU, nor has an export
embargo been imposed by Russia as a retaliation to western
sanctions.Yet another instance of the Europeans talking tough but writing Putin checks.

Zelenskyy beat Spankee yet again. He required US participation--or no minerals. So, how many thousands of US military people will he need in Ukraine? And how many MORE billions of dollars in assorted costs will be incurred? No participation in the game = no minerals. 50% of zero is zero--which is higher than Spankee's ego AND IQ--combined.
