Who is going to extract the minerals? The Ukrainians? With what equipment? On what scale. Use your head on this it isn’t that difficult.
They are all criminals. We are just supporting one of the criminals, and he just got bitch slapped. Let him fly back to Ukraine with his tail between his legs.
The past 3 years have nothing to do with what is happening right now. This is Molotov Rippentrop level stuff going on and people expect Ukraine to be excited about it.
Why wouldn't it be Ukraine workers? You really think Americans are going to walk into some disputed region and start mining? Use your head.
My point is it wouldn’t be disputed if Americans are there. You think Russia attacks American workers? It would be WW3.
My point is your inventing the part about American working being there to begin with. The deal Trump wants was for a percent of the profits, which does not require a single American to be there, .. not to let us in and do our own mining.
The only thing bad about this is we will have to pay for him to fly back again to finally get the deal done. Maybe he can fly commercial?
So in this hypothetical, when US workers are bombed, US is going into open war with Russia and losing troops in support of massive corporations mining operations. So our soldiers dying for profit and higher stock prices for that corp.
Whew, can't believe Putin didn't literally pop out of a closet. Zelensky had to know the fix was in once the Vance droid was moved out to the stage.
Nah, we were going to show up with a fleet of Caterpillars, the Russians would wave us through, then sigh and say "well, they got us, Trump is too smart for us", then they'd go home and we'd all live happily ever after. I mean, if it's that simple, why not just put a few American boots on the ground and sit back and watch Russia retreat?
US workers being there would in itself guarantee no bombings. Putin is a lot of things but stupid isn’t one of them.
