Senator Lindsey Graham has publicly stated that former President Donald Trump is negotiating a deal with Ukraine to secure its rare earth minerals, valued between $2 trillion and $7 trillion. According to Graham, Ukraine is the richest country in Europe in terms of rare minerals, including uranium, titanium, lithium, and graphite. The proposed agreement aims to return the money spent by the U.S. on Ukraine by leveraging these resources. This deal is seen as beneficial for both nations, ensuring a strong economic partnership and supporting Ukraine's defense against Russia. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has reportedly included this resource exploitation strategy in his Victory Plan to motivate continued U.S. support in terms of weapons and financial aid. Ukraine's natural resources and precious metals, as reported by the German publication Bild and Fox News, are central to this strategy. The deal also includes resources from Kiev.
