We Are Ready to End This Ridiculous War: Trump

I want to reach an agreement with Ukraine to gain access to the country's rare earth materials as a condition for continuing U.S. support for Kyiv in the war against Russia. This was stated by U.S. President Donald Trump in a conversation with reporters.

Trump expressed dissatisfaction with the fact that the U.S. has sent more military and economic aid to Ukraine than European partners.

“We want to strike a deal with Ukraine, through which we will receive their rare earth materials and other things in exchange for what we have given them,” he said.

He noted that he has received information from the Ukrainian government that they are ready to make a deal that would make critical elements available for the modern high-tech economy to the U.S.

“I want assurance regarding rare earth elements. We are investing hundreds of billions of dollars. They have a lot of rare earth elements,” Trump added.

Trump also mentioned that negotiations are ongoing to bring the conflict to an end. “We have made significant progress regarding Russia and Ukraine. We are ready to end this ridiculous war,” he concluded.
