Ukraine Rejects U.S. Demand for Half of Its Mineral Resources
-
Yeah - the US was just unlucky. They lost these ones + the korean war. But anywhere else they would win. Maybe except in Russia. Or china. Or a few others. But except for that they would win
-
Sorry Ukraine, that we elected a small handed baby, who is a terrible leader. Hopefully, things work out for you.
Sincerely, U.S.A. -
I think that, if Trump hadn't decided to just sow chaos for the last three weeks, all of these deals he's trying to make might actually end up with more favorable outcomes.
How is anyone supposed to trust the US in good faith when they're watching us destroy ourselves on purpose?
-
What good is being saved from being enslaved by one dictator only to be enslaved by your "saviour" instead?
-
Well... the US could have won any of those wars, but only by completely wiping them off the map. And even the worst of the presidents wouldn't have done that (the current one TBD).
-
I would have just pulled a Trump and agreed then reneged afterwards.
-
Let me guess, it was the jungle. I recall from history class, that China is protected by a massive jungle on one side, which has kept potential invaders from trying that direction. Maybe the same is true for Vietnam as well.
-
The US was lucky that Afghanistan didn’t drain all of their money and power. It was already a total disaster, but it could have been even worse.
-
It's a bold strategy, Cotton.
-
I'd like to see Ukraine get Crimea back but it's never going to happen. not without russias complete collapse at least
-
a worthy goal
-
So kick US out of NATO. They can re-apply once they're done with fascism.
-
That works if you're in a position of power and don't need to rely on the people you're reneging on.
-
US support was never out of the goodness of their hearts, there was always going to be a price to pay, but of course trump goes about it in the most hamfisted way possible.
-
So now the US are officially running a protection racket! You really do have mob bosses running the place.
-
The US has always got the dollar-as-global-reserve-currency out of its military spending, which is a large part of how post second world war America accrued a huge portion of unearned global wealth. Trump, those that voted for him, and those that spent decades creating this situation for personal enrichment are rapidly hastening the end of this situation.
-
Hopefully Europe steps up
-
It's not just the act of spending on the military, it's about control which they get through the use of the military.
-
not without russias complete collapse at least
Your terms are acceptable.

I have this terrible feeling that Turkey would veto, even if somehow we could distract Trump with enough McDonald's and fake tits to try to get it done.
