Colin please tell me how is Russia going to be stopped? Short of nuclear weapons (heaven forbid) Ukraine unfortunately is on the short end of things with no end in sight. Zelensky was offered a possible cease fire deal from President Trump. It would be 50/50 mining rare earths with American help and security - not military to help them build up their country again and recover money given to them not loaned as the Europeans did (good luck getting that back). Please don’t tell me it’s for Musk to have access to lithium. Right now most of the rare earths come from China. Musk could drop Tesla and have no effect on him. It’s amazing how the environmentalists were for him until he turned pro America.
