🚨 A Huge Clash Over Ukraine’s Minerals! 🚨
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy just made a bold stand—he refused a US demand to give up $500 billion worth of minerals in exchange for wartime aid.
What’s Happening?
🔹 The US has given Ukraine $67 billion in weapons and $31.5 billion in financial aid to help fight against Russia.
🔹 But now, the Trump administration is saying Ukraine should repay the US—not in money, but in rare earth minerals that are key for technology and defense.
🔹 The US wants 50% ownership of Ukraine’s critical minerals, but Zelenskiy refuses to give in.
Zelenskiy Fights Back!
💬 “You can’t just say we owe $500 billion and demand minerals back. That’s not how this works!”
Zelenskiy demanded security guarantees before even considering a deal. He won’t let Ukraine be taken advantage of in its time of need.
💬 “I defend Ukraine. I can’t sell our country!”
Trump’s Team Won’t Budge
💬 Trump’s team insisted on a 50% share of Ukraine’s minerals, with no clear promises of future protection from Russia.
📜 Zelenskiy told them: “Rewrite the deal and make it fair!”
Where Has All the War Money Gone?
💰 The US and Europe have sent $200 billion to Ukraine—but Ukraine has spent a total of $320 billion on defense. That means Ukraine has covered $120 billion on its own!
What’s Next?
🔴 Will the US agree to a new deal?
🔴 Will Ukraine lose US support?
🔴 How will this affect the war?
Zelenskiy has made his stand—but what happens now? Stay tuned! 🚨
