Zelensky: Ukraine still 'ready' to sign minerals deal with Trump
-
We don't make deals with fascist states, we will take advantage of them if the opportunity arises.
-
I’m not choosing to debate anything. I’m just saying it’s champing, not chomping. No debate. I agree with you otherwise
-
It it was a fair deal, investment from the US to build more infrastructures, doubling their investment capacity to mine stuff.
-
I think what is happening is that Ukraine believes that signing the deal will result in a range of outcomes from neutral to positive, depending how and when the US renegs on their side of it. But without the deal the outcomes range from neutral to very negative, so making the deal is the clear right move even if you believe it won't do anything.

This should be a referendum. Zelensky has staked his reputation and legitimacy on winning this war. If the question is independence and more war or become a colony of Russia then a lot would be on board. If the question is become a colony of Russia and peace or become a colony of America and more war, I think that's a tougher call to make.

We already have, the French rafale is pretty good. They just aren’t made in sufficient numbers and you can’t ramp that up in a week

This should be a referendum.
You can not hold a referendum during an active war.
-
I disagree. Democrats would likely take advantage of the agreement if they win the next election.
-
You’re just being pedantic now. Merriam-Webster among others say chomping is acceptable now. Language changes, keep up or shut up

Why, the U.S. has had many elections during wars, many of which become a referendum on whether to stay in the war. They 1864 election had candidates openly advocating for ending the civil war. The 1968 election had multiple nominees on the democratic side advocating to end the Vietnam War, and the winner Nixon was campaigning on ending the war "with honor.
-
The people should have a say in whether there country continues a war,
Yes, including the people displaced and oh here is a thought, the ones in occupied land.
-
It's less about bringing Trump and US conservatives around them it is about maintaining the moral high ground for help from Europe.
-
You're forgetting a key part here. Ukraine wouldn't be signing away it's sovereignty. If the help doesn't materialize then the mineral wealth doesn't have to materialize either
-
Taiwan is silently but furiously preparing for us to not help in the event of a Chinese invasion.
-
The F-35 isn't likely to have this problem as it's a joint project. Any kill switch software would be evident to the project members.
-
I hate you.

I agree, displaced person's should get a vote. Ideally people in the occupied territories would too, but thats just not feasible. Just like how in 1864 the blacks in the south shouldve gotten to vote since they were all now freed under the emancipation proclamation, and they had the most at stake in the conflict, but the confederacy was never going to allow that. That doesn't mean the north shouldn't have had an election because not everyone could participate.

That was Diablo 1. In Diablo II they had the trade window.
And besides, you don't just drop it right next to them! You both drop your stuff a screen apart and then walk past each other to pick it up.
