Could this agreement put American boots on the ground?

Just Moe's boots. Army of One.

War will probably end now. I would be surprised if Putin wants any of that noise. We would be in Moscow in a week. Russia will probably get to keep most of what they hold by ending it now.

I don't support either country dumbass. However if it stops the war then it will turn out to be a good move. You do want to stop the war Obama and Biden allowed Putin to start don't you???

Well you aren't condemning Trump's deal that would continue supplies to Ukraine either. Why not?

Ukraine is paying us back. The war must end for us to harvest the minerals. What part of ending the war do you have a problem with if successful?

Cool. Hope it does end. I'm happy that you are finally seeing that supplying Ukraine to defeat Putin is important.

Supplying Ukraine isn't going to stop Russia you moron. You might as well burned the money. Why didn't Obama and Biden do what Trump is attempting??? It's almost like they were attempting to play both sides.

Putin now has a hard decision. Let's see what he chooses.

I'm not condemning the deal nor saying it's good...time will tell and I'm skeptical off it . The only good that can come from this deal is we should get paid for our involvement. Since it's coming from the American government I'm sure us the tax payers will get some cock .

2 questions:
1. Why is it important?
2. How important is it really?

I can think of countless better ways to spend $350,000,000,000 than giving it to Ukraine over the past decade. For example, the estimates to rebuild Maui are $5 billion. Wouldn't Americans benefit more from sending Ukraine "only" $345 billion and rebuild Maui? Add North Carolina and California too.

We could have given every state $7 billion to boost their education instead.

Why are we bankrupting our own country to support Ukraine? We shouldn't be giving them a dime and let Europe sort out its own messes. The US lost 2 generations keeping Europe stabilized.

Am I understanding you correctly? You would have not supported our actions to stop Hitler?

What part of Obama and Biden were on team Putin don't you understand? Giving Ukraine enough weapons to get destroyed by Russia isn't assisting Ukraine. It's why Putin attacked Ukraine under Obama and Biden. He had the green light from both of them. All the money sent to Ukraine now needs to be audited so we can see who really ended up with the majority of it.

Every nickel we send to anyone needs to be audit. NGO'S should have line by line approval.

Stop with the games. Hitler has nothing to do with this.

You said it is important for the US to financially support Ukraine to defeat Putin. Why is this important? And how important is this relative to the other problems facing the US?

US-Ukraine sign crucial minerals deal: What will be the impact on Russia war?

excerpt:
“This agreement signals clearly to Russia that the Trump administration is committed to a peace process centred on a free, sovereign and prosperous Ukraine over the long term,” Bessent said. “And to be clear, no state or person who financed or supplied the Russian war machine will be allowed to benefit from the reconstruction of Ukraine.”

...more

Moreover, the US-China rivalry has pushed Trump to seek Ukraine’s minerals. China currently dominates the global supply chain for critical minerals, controlling between 50 per cent and 75 per cent of global rare earth element production and refining.

...more

the US saw it crucial to gain access to Kyiv’s minerals and hence, the deal was drafted. In February, Trump indicated that he wanted access to Ukraine’s rare earth materials, describing it as reimbursement for the billions of dollars in aid the US has given to war-torn nation.

*editor's note:
this agreement is a "de-facto" security agreement between the US and Ukraine which assures its continued protection against further Russian aggression, and also assures the US will be reimbursed for the military aid it supplies protecting Ukraine from that aggression

(from above linked article)

It’s important to note here that the latest version of the minerals deal doesn’t provide Ukraine with any concrete US security guarantee. However, it states that Kyiv and Washington affirms a “long-term strategic alignment” between the two countries and US “support for Ukraine’s security, prosperity, reconstruction, and integration into global economic frameworks.”

Translation: Don't mess with our strategic ally, or you're messing with us!

I have one account unlike you who cries about everything Trump does on a board that 70% of West Virginia voters chose to be there President. Talking about pissing in the wind.
Why did you reply to my response/question to SoCo? Had nothing to do with you.

But you said that the U.S. bailed out Europe twice. Just wondering if you felt like we shouldn't have been involved with helping Britain prior to December 7.

I am happy to discuss WW2. Prior to beginning that discussion, it will be necessary for me to understand your perspective as to why supporting Ukraine to defeat Putin so important? And how important is it to the US citizens in light of our other problems?

It will enable me to answer your comparisons to WW2 and to Hitler. Thanks.

Hillary wants you to believe that she doesn't understand Medvedev and Putin are tight allies and have the same goals.

When in reality how North Korea and Iran along with the below all need investigated for real this time.
