Ukrainian President Zelensky is trying to back out of the minerals deal – again. He did it once in public, and after that, he said the minerals deal was back on but then backed off. Now he wants joining NATO as a condition of a minerals deal. People online are criticizing Trump for the deal, but it’s a deal that would require Zelensky to pay the US back. It also puts US companies and security in Ukraine.
Zelensky is better at backing out of deals than making peace deals.
“Zelensky, by the way,” Trump said, “I see he’s trying to back out of the rare earth deal — and if he does that, he’s got some problems, big, big problems.”

President Trump also said last week that the U.S. and Ukraine should soon be reaching a minerals deal, which would help his administration recoup some of the money it loaned the Zelensky government.
However, Zelensky said during a Friday press conference that he would not recognize U.S. military aid as loans.
“We are grateful for the support, but this is not a credit, and we will not allow it,” Zelensky stated.
A rare minerals deal might hinder Zelensky’s money laundering operation.
Trump also addressed his discussions on a ceasefire between Ukraine and Russia, expressing confidence that Russian President Vladimir Putin would not backtrack on commitments.
Trump sternly warned Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, alleging that Kyiv is trying to walk away from a rare earth minerals deal previously negotiated with the United States.
“I think Zelenskyy, by the way, he’s trying to back out of the rare earth deal, and if he does that, he’s got some problems – big, big problems,” Trump stated. He added that Ukraine had agreed to the deal but is now attempting to renegotiate terms, which he suggested would not be tolerated.
Trump also mentioned his ongoing efforts to negotiate a ceasefire between Ukraine and Russia. Asked about his relationship with Russian President Vladimir Putin, Trump denied any deterioration, stating that he believes Putin will honor commitments made regarding a partial ceasefire.
There is a near-zero chance that Mr. Zelensky will agree to any peace deal.

The EU and Ukraine want to continue the war with the US military since they can’t defend themselves. They want our youth fighting Russia.

President Trump also said leveraging tariffs to exert pressure against adversarial nations is effective. He cited secondary tariffs on Venezuela as an example of how economic measures can drive compliance, hinting at a future broader tariff strategy.
He also said he is serious about a third term but is not interested in discussing it now. His current term has nearly four years left.
Z-man keeps arguing that the West should not negotiate with Putin because Putin will not honor his word. Pot, meet Kettle. 10 days before his last White House vistit, the minerals deal, which had greatly changed to favor the Ukraine, was finished and ready to sign but Z-man insisted on a WH visti for the ceremony where he behaved as he said Putin would behave and wouldn’t honor the deal he was there to sign. There was no other reason for him to be at the WH except to sign the minerals deal. Now Trump is angry because Putin doesn’t want to negotiate with Z-man’s government; calls them illegitimate because Z-man’s term expired 11 months ago. Z-man is a toady of the previous administrations scheme to weaken, and possibly overthrow, Putin’s government. I say let Putin take whatever land makes Russia comfortable, it is inevitable anyway, and try to enlist Russia as an ally of the US to contain an expansionist China and Europe and the Ukaraine be damned.
A-hole un-elected dictator Zelenskky thinks the U.S. is a bank where he doesn’t have to pay back his loans. Let’s hope Russia kicks the shit out of the Brits and French fighting against them and then takes over the entirely of Ukraine.
This guy is the biggest moron in the world, unworthy of leadership. It’s typical of an Obama plant. He’s too dumb to realize the world doesn’t revolve around him but I suspect that’s going to change real soon. So let’s do ourselves a big favor and confiscate any assets he has in the US and never allow him to immigrate here.
It’s up to Ukraine to fix this situation. Give them nothing and let them overthrow their government. Do not deal with a drugged adolescent NWO agent dictator. His purpose is to create instability. A relationship with Russia is much batter than with England, Germany or France. Lots of good things could come of this.
He’s wiggling anyway he can to stay as dictator of Ukraine. He knows the deal will require him the step down.
Z has proven that e is a an with serious mental issues. He is so buried in his subjective world he has lost touch with the real world. In some ways he reminds me of Hitler and Mussolini and we know how their lives ended.
He’s a danger to himself and everyone else. Cannot be trusted under any circumstances is the dilemma at hand.
He’s not doing so great these days without the White House sponsoring and directing the mainstream’s propaganda. The fake news, propaganda an money for nothing has ended; so there goes his popularity along with his dictatorship.
Time’s not on his side.
What’s going to happen over there will be remembered by Ukraine’s youth, they’re going to resent what they’ve made to go through. They’re going to be made to by this experience to favor Russian’s more than ever is what’s going to happen.
