   It looks like Zelensky refused to pay „protection“ money to the US. From what I understand, Trump's deal means:

   - Give up Russian-occupied territory.
   - Return occupied land back to Russia.
   - Give up 50% of the minerals to the US.

   This is the worst imaginable outcome. The US wants to profit from the war and let Europe deal alone with the problems and costs.

     @Npars01 this makes the Lex Fridman Interview even more comical, where he was „praising" trump.

     Zelensky knows that Trump is a faithless liar.

     Any agreement with Trump isn't worth the paper its written on.

     He's betrayed allies in Afghanistan & Syrian Kurds.

     He's torn up trade agreements he signed just 4 years ago.

     He signs contracts then doesn't pay.

     He picks cherry picks winners based on who flatters his ego or who donated to him.

     @shadowplay_2112 @Npars01 I'm not sure about that since its also directly interfering in our current elections.

     He already met the leader of the far right Party AfD, that wants to leave the EU and more (much closer to russia). Musk himself was also already speaking on their election events.

     @obrhoff @Npars01 When he made that comment, you and me were not the intended audience - Trump was. He was playing to Trump’s ego. [edit: typo]
