In this week's Battleground podcast Saul and Patrick discuss the first clear signal that the US will not abandon Ukraine. This is in response to Trump's comments that he's looking to do a deal with Ukraine where the US will look to secure some of Ukraine's rare earth minerals.

They also address a host of listeners questions including on what the effects of Ukrainian strikes on oil refineries are and what needs to happen for Ukraine's western allies to send in troops.
