Summary
Vladimir Putin proposed offering the U.S. access to Russian rare minerals, including from Russian-occupied parts of Ukraine, in joint mining projects.
His offer follows U.S. pressure on Ukraine to grant mineral access in exchange for aid.
Putin dismissed concerns over a U.S.-Ukraine agreement, claiming Russia has far greater resources. He also suggested U.S.-Russia collaboration on aluminium production.
Ukraine continues separate negotiations with both the U.S. and the EU.
It would only work if trump was susceptible to being bought/bribed.
OK I think this is hilarious and pretty obvious, but still:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poe’s_lawOr, gullible.
Putin has no intention of letting the USA have any control over those resources.
The proposal could also see the two countries collaborating on aluminium extraction and supply to the US to stabilise prices, he added.
Oh kind of like THE OPPOSITE of tarifs? 🤣🤣🤣
colonization baybay
no?
show your work how two nations splitting the material wealth of another nation is not colonization. because it seems like a pretty open and shut case to me
Oh! Yes. True.
Zelinsky should offer four times that in russian minerals.
On Tuesday, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told journalists the proposal opened up “quite broad prospects”, adding that the US needed rare earth minerals and Russia had “a lot of them”.
That reads kind of desperate. Russia no longer has the ability to extract these resources themselves.
I feel they are mostly talking about the minerals ‘they own’ in the occupied parts of Ukraine, and less in what we know as Russia.
“As for the new territories, it’s the same. We are ready to attract foreign partners to the so-called new, to our historical territories, which have returned to the Russian Federation,” he added.
republiQan scum allowed this. Traitors.
I’m still a bit nauseous hearing about their ethernal reich myth.
Well shit
