The high level of corruption in Ukraine has been known for decades. It's the home of the AZOV Battalion, the largest nazi battalion in the world with operatives working in most nations of the world. nazi's are extremely corrupt and Obama/Biden/Harris and the gang have been in bed with them using their deals as a money laundering scheme. It's been well known that Zelensky and the gang have been stealing a lot of the money that was blindly sent to help their war effort. It was blindly sent so the swamp in the US and Ukraine could steal the money. Obama/Biden/Harris/Zelensky have been laughing all the way to the bank on US taxpayer money. It's time to put a stop to it. However, as for rare earths in Ukraine, what rare earths? There are no rare earth deposits known to exist in Ukraine. Most people don't know the difference between rare earth metals and strategic metals. Lithium, tungsten, and cobalt are not rare earth metals, they are strategic metals. I've been reading up on this in mining news that there are no known rare earth deposits in Ukraine. I've done searches for mining companies and exploration companies looking for rare earth metals in Ukraine and have found zero. You can find rare earth metals in your back yard because they are everywhere. The problem is, they are in such low quantities that its not economically feasible to mine and refine it. You'd go broke in a heart beat. Ukraine does mine iron and coal, and its claimed they have 7% of the worlds tungsten deposits. 40% of the metals and hydrocarbons of Ukraine are located in the Russian held territories. As for the rare earth deals that Pres Trump and Putin have been negotiating, those deposits are located in Siberia. Russia has miners who were trained by western nations after the Soviet Union collapsed. Western miners went into Russia and developed their failing mining operations turning them profitable for them. However, Russia lacks the financial resources to afford exploration and building of new mines. That can run into the $100's of millions of dollars per mine. So Putin wants the US to provide the finances to develop their Siberian rare earth mines. In return, the US would get some of the rare earths mined. In that way, Russia will begin to wean themselves off of their high dependency of Chinese rare earths. Daddy Xi doesn't like that idea, he wants everyone dependent upon his mining operations. The Congo just put a ban on all cobalt exports from their mines for the entire year of 2025 because daddy Xi flooded the cobalt market to drop the price and put western mines out of business and it's worked rather well for him. He'd done that with other metals. Daddy Xi has been buying up mining and infrastructure around the world while his proxy US democrats have been pushing lgbtq. Its been a great smoke and mirrors operation and he's been extremely successful. The US, Canada, and Australia has rare earth deposits that are large enough with levels of rare earths high enough to affordably mine them. MP is the only rare earth mining in the US and they just recently finished building a rare earth refinery in Utah so they no longer have to ship the ore to China to have it refined. There are others who are exploring for rare earths in the US, but it takes years and millions of dollars before even 1 mine will open. Lynas (Austrailian company) is building a rare earth refinery in Texas I believe it is. We need to develop mining operations in the US and west or daddy Xi will be having us bow down to the CCP for centuries to come. I hope President Trump is successful in getting peace established in Ukraine, but the need for US mining operations should be a priority also.
Well, I don’t know if anybody else sees it, but Zelensky is part of the swamp
