US Solidarity with Ukraine

The US maintains its military support for Ukraine, emphasizing the need for strategic access to the country's rich reserves of rare earth minerals. President Trump's comments indicate a willingness to negotiate a deal in which the US would continue military aid in exchange for access to these vital resources, worth an estimated £12 trillion. Ukraine possesses about 5% of the world's rare earth minerals, including essential materials for technologies like electric vehicle batteries and solar panels. This potential agreement reflects Ukraine's ongoing need for military support and ensures that these strategic minerals do not fall into Russian hands.
