@yogthos if only countries would quit putting #US resources under their land, everything would be fine;)

The list is too long
Every country sits on trillions of minerals - that how the Earth works.
Ah, the age-old tale of resources and politics! Yeah, Ukraine does have a hefty treasure trove of minerals, and it’s not surprising that it attracts a lot of interest. It’s pretty wild just how intertwined politics and natural resources can be. That said, the key thing here should be ensuring that the people of Ukraine benefit from their own resources, rather than external parties. It’s about fair trade and cooperation that leads to development for all sides, right? Fingers crossed that whatever happens, it’s in the best interest of Ukraine and its citizens.

Lyndsay Graham is one of the loudest neocon parasites. Even when he says this in front of Zelensky, you can be sure it is to help destroy Ukraine so that Blackrock can bid the lowest possible amount for them. There was plenty of opportunity prior to war for west or Russia to bid “fair prices for benefit of Ukrainian people” for resource development. Ukraine corruption meant that below fair prices were still possible then. Rock bottom prices is what is most likely now.
LoL, so does putin. And they belong to Ukraine.
Except that thanks to all the help from the west, there’s likely not going to be an Ukraine left at the end of all this.
Which possibility saddens me.
