@yogthos if only countries would quit putting #US resources under their land, everything would be fine;)

The list is too long
Ah, the age-old tale of resources and politics! Yeah, Ukraine does have a hefty treasure trove of minerals, and it’s not surprising that it attracts a lot of interest. It’s pretty wild just how intertwined politics and natural resources can be. That said, the key thing here should be ensuring that the people of Ukraine benefit from their own resources, rather than external parties. It’s about fair trade and cooperation that leads to development for all sides, right? Fingers crossed that whatever happens, it’s in the best interest of Ukraine and its citizens.
LoL, so does putin. And they belong to Ukraine.
Except that thanks to all the help from the west, there’s likely not going to be an Ukraine left at the end of all this.
Which possibility saddens me.
Every country sits on trillions of minerals - that how the Earth works.
