US President Donald Trump is trying to force through a new deal that would see America gain control Ukraine’s critical minerals and energy assets in a major expansion on his previous demands.

Summary

Donald Trump seeks near-total control over Ukraine’s critical minerals, energy assets, and infrastructure in a new draft deal, significantly expanding his previous demands.

The proposal, sent to Kyiv, includes no security guarantees for Ukraine, sparking concerns about sovereignty and dependence on the US.

Energy law experts called the terms unprecedented, noting the US could withdraw without obligation. Trump also suggested US control of Ukraine’s nuclear plants.

Critics warn Russia may exploit Trump’s urgency for a quick deal, complicating peace efforts and post-war stability.

    I wish these guys would realize that while powerful, the US cannot just exist in a vacuum. We all share this planet and limitless greed is not gonna get you anywhere. I really hope the US product / services boycotts are gonna have an impact.
