Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) has frequently brought up Ukraine’s rare earth minerals as a reason to continue fueling the proxy war.
“This war is about money. People don’t talk much about it. But you know, the richest country in all of Europe for rare earth minerals is Ukraine. Two to seven trillion dollars’ worth of minerals that are rare earth minerals, very relevant to the 21st century,” Graham told Fox News host Sean Hannity in November. “Ukraine’s ready to do a deal with us, not the Russians. So it’s in our interest to make sure that Russia doesn’t take over the place.”
Azov brigade and the long history of Ukrainians enthusiastically helping the Nazis in WWII, both are on wikipedia, citing western sources.
We shouldn’t help Russia either, given they’re just as bad these days, but treating one better than the other is categorically insane… Unless one is willing to sign over pretty much all their mineral and agriculture rights to us companies.
Azov is bad, but they aren’t Ukraine as a whole. Their leader is Jewish! As for WWII, you got to be joking. That was 80 years ago.
And as Russia is ingrained with Wagner, Rusich etc. does that also declare Putin fascist, with the invasion being fascist infighting?
Zelensky is a Zionist. So he checks the Nazi box too.
US like israel, ukraine want US continued support, why would zelensky talk bad about Israel when doing so would anger the US?
Seems pretty straightforward to me why he would be buddies with them.
Some statements have aged… rather poorly…
