Why is trump meeting Putin in Alaska to discuss "swapping territories"?

[struth]

That's the same lie George W. Bush said about Iraq to lie us into a war.

Iran was under IAEA monitoring and control.

Iran condemns the resolution passed by the IAEA's board of governors as "political" and says it will open a new uranium enrichment facility.

Then quote it. Because I couldn't find it.

After months of tense negotiations – including one particularly fiery meeting in the White House Oval Office between United States President Donald Trump and Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in February – Washington and Kyiv have finalised a long-awaited minerals deal.

The agreement, signed in Washington, DC, on Wednesday, will give the US preferential access to new Ukrainian minerals and natural resources licences. In return, the US will provide financial and military assistance to Ukraine to help the country rebuild after the war.

The deal comes at a critical moment as the US had threatened to step away from its mediation effort to bring an end to the more than three-year conflict.

Trump, who has heavily promoted the deal, said it represents “payback” for the $350bn that he claims Washington has spent on supporting Ukraine’s war effort.

It is unclear how Trump has arrived at the figure of $350bn. Official figures from the US Department of Defense put total spending on Ukraine at $182.8bn between January 2022 and December 2024.

Regardless, in Kyiv, Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal hailed the agreement as “good, equal and beneficial” for both sides.

What’s in the minerals deal?
Few details have been released about the precise terms of the deal, which was signed by US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Ukraine’s Vice Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko on Wednesday.

In a statement after the signing, Bessent said the “historic” economic partnership would send a clear signal to Russia that the Trump administration is committed to a peace process that ends what he called a “cruel and senseless war”.

No. You gave your spin of the article, that didn't mention any security guarantees.

I posted the article, and as I showed. It's not in there.

No matter how much you tacitly infer it.

Let me guess. Trump will say it's sitting on Pam Bondi's desk?

Tell that to the innocents that died and countries he over threw

They would disagree

No I literally have the line from the second paragraph of the NPR article I posted

Stop embarrassing yourself

Under a pile of rocks, destroyed

 

[Crepitus]

I can’t imagine Putin would give up anything of substance, even though everything is falling apart around him. If Zelenskyy doesn’t cave, Trump will withdraw support. The only thing that Trump cares about is the Nobel. What a mess.

Yeah, this is all pretty weird.

Zelensky is not gonna cave.

No Skippy…it is what actually happened
Iran surrendered its enriched uranium supplies to Obama

Trumps bombing missed the mark

They surrendered it??? to whom?... where is it?... where id Obama put it all?... and The bombs where on target and more effective than the pinheads on TV said they would be... Israel has assets all over Iran... we know the site was obliterated....

 

[Rambunctious]

The Reagan peace agreement with Iran set up a court to broker disputes. And the court told the US to return Iran's money.

Linky please.... Regan's been dead a long time...

"Geopolitical pivot point"

You stole that slogan after binge watching the hags on The View, right?

When did the US "betray the legacy of Roosevelt and Churchill, and every American GI who fought in Europe."?

Would that be when ole" Stumblebum allowed Russia a minor incursion?

I have never seen “The View”. I don’t look for talking heads on television to tell me what I already know.

you tried to dismiss it in your usual trivial and dishonest manner. Which is your way of saying you can’t have an intelligent discussion on the topic.

Trump began attacking our traditional allies even before the 2016 election. Attacking them for not spending enough on defense and falsely portraying it as money owed to the United States (which appealed to his know nothing base because they didn’t know any better).

He sided with Putin all through his first term. He sat on appropriated aid for months over the objections of Ukraine and NATO.

He openly supported the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and sat silent when Putin boasted that Ukraine was just the first step in reassembling the Soviet Empire. Thus, Trump also betrayed the legacy of Reagan and George HWBush.

Trump’s behavior of NATO and his embrace of Putin are a complete betrayal of everything American world leadership has represented for a century.

And now Neville Trump is off to Alaska to try and bargain away pieces of Ukraine, without their consultation or consent.

Giving Putin the victory he wants. Although he isn’t going to take the deal, either.

No, it has subsequently been established that the US only destroyed one of the three bases it attacked.

Zelensky is not gonna cave.

Why should he agree when Ukraine gets absolutely nothing out of Trumps “deal”?

2012. January 2012: Iran announced it had begun uranium enrichment at the Fordow facility near Qom. The IAEA confirmed Iran started the production of uranium enriched to 20%.

That's not true... The United States bombed three Iranian nuclear sites in a series of strikes. These sites were Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan... why do you have to lie?....
Google it stupid...
