❝Volodymyr Zelenskyy has said no security guarantee with the US has been agreed and described the deal between the two countries as a ‘framework’…said a security guarantee with the US was essential. “If we don’t get security guarantees, we won’t have a ceasefire, nothing will work, nothing.”
He wants to discuss with Trump the possibility to use Russia’s frozen assets for mining resources development, weapons purchase and reconstruction.❞
In short, Ukraine isn’t capitulating; they’re using the minerals deal as a hostage. Do you notice how wildly different this is from the “I basically ended this conflict” BS that Trump has been spouting the last few days?
