  1. I understand the point you’re trying to get across but know that the first slide, “What’s Wrong?” Is common in the US as questioning whether there’s anything wrong at all rather than press your point. I think you should rethink it.

  2. I thought this was very well done and very easy to read (a lot of the target market have trouble with this – for example Trump himself). I suspect Trump was planning on re-selling the mineral rights to Russia after Ukraine signed. Then there would be a legal reason why Russia would have to take all the land because they owned the minerals.

  3. Trump doesn’t want them to make a deal so he can give Ukraine to Putin.

  5. It’s wrong because the idea exists in the first place. Call it what you will Coerscion still boils down to petty Blackmail

  6. I would have asked ”what’s wrong with Trump ?” globally

  7. 🙏💪🇺🇦🙏💪🇺🇦🙏💪🇺🇦 No minerals deal!

  8. Everything is wrong with the deal. Nothing on the deal benefits Ukrainians. That money from Americans was seen as a GRANT Donations approved by Congress. Not a loan or minerals deal. Zelenskyy is not someone you can buy and that’s why Putin wants him out. Basically calling Trump to help like Putin did in 2016 and 2024.

  10. Nothing wrong he is an aggressive businessman.
    It does not matter really. Because domestic oligarchs are exploiting resources without any benefit for the country as a whole. And the rule of the strongest overrides any laws. But it seems Trump pushed too hard and feedback loop will slap hum in the face hard.

  11. In the UK we have a saying that could directly apply to trump “he aint got the minerals!”

  13. Theb just sign it now and then declare it nule under international laws.

  15. It’s less of a question of “what’s wrong with the deal?” and more of “Is there actually anything right with the deal?” The Disaster in Chief seems hell bent on trying to force everyone he possibly can into the most ridiculous deals on the pretext of “Everyone’s been taking advantage of poor little us for too long”

    The guy is politically illiterate, chronically delusional and suffering from the largest case of Egoitius that I think I’ve ever seen.

    Unfortunately Ukraine have to pretend to bend the knee to avoid his toddler tantrums until they can lock in assistance that is actually useful.

  18. Making any deal with Trump is a bad deal. He screws people, companies, and countries over. Ukraine should turn to EU and forget about the US. We are no longer a functioning democracy
