Zelenskyy's delegation is expected to sign a landmark economic agreement with the U.S. in Washington, aimed at financing the reconstruction of war-damaged Ukraine
If you do not want to be completely disgusted, embarrassed and angry then don’t watch the video of the Oval Office discussion.
I knew Trump just wanted to try to strong arm him into signing away their mineral rights. They kicked them out of the Whitehouse afterward, and Trump said Zelenskyy could come back when he’s ready to talk about peace.
Zelenskyy literally kept asking about security measures/promises.
Why would he sign a deal to fork over mineral rights when America would just walk in, steal their minerals, and then immediately leave them SOL just like they did to the interpreters and people who helped in the war in the Middle East?
The one really great thing about this was that it was straight-up televised proof that Trump and company are authoritarian fascists. It’s kind of incredible that they are so blunt about it. I think that blunt straightforwardness will be their downfall.
You would have to be a very dense person or just as terrible to agree with them at this point. They have shown the world their true colors at this point, and I feel like it’s a matter of time before their time runs out.
