Aid-Desperate Ukraine Offers To Replace US Soldiers In Europe, Trump Says ‘War Has Got to Stop’
Ukraine is exploring ways to gain support from President-elect Trump, with Mikhail Podoliak suggesting Ukraine could replace US troops in Europe and offer rare minerals like lithium and titanium. Podoliak also discussed Ukraine’s “victory plan,” which calls for NATO membership and no territorial concessions to Russia, but faces mixed reactions in the West. While Trump has criticized unconditional US aid to Ukraine, Podoliak believes elements of Ukraine’s strategy could align with Trump’s interests, including countering China’s influence. Trump’s administration may push for a negotiated settlement.
