So the war in Ukraine has always been about the control of resources. Western corporations are desperate to get their hands on Russian natural resources, so they will do what they can to weaken Russia in the hope of breaking it up and taking over. (Officials from the EU were saying this as recently as last month.)
But Ukraine has lots of natural resources, too, and ex-President Zelensky has obediently turned these over to BlackRock, Vanguard, and other corporations. He changed the law so that prime Ukrainian farmland can be sold to foreigners, and now millions of hectares of arable land will profit Larry Fink's shareholders, and the Ukrainian people will never get the benefit of their own resources ever again.
So it's no surprise that Zelensky is offering up the mineral wealth now. Trump wants it, and he'll be happy to deal with Zelensky to get it. Zelensky is happy to turn it over, even though the war is wrapping up. He'll go down in history as the man who impoverished his country, and greedy businessmen will see Biden/Trump as the winners.
Public fellatio is illegal in all fifty states. I bet it breaks Japanese law too.
