U.S. President Donald Trump suggested that Ukraine could lose its sovereignty to Russia, and said he wanted compensation for the aid that Washington had provided to Ukraine.
″[Ukraine] may make a deal. They may not make a deal. They may be Russian someday, or they may not be Russian someday. But we’re going to have all this money in there [Ukraine] and I say, I want it back,” Trump said in a Fox News interview that aired Monday.
The president also said that the U.S. had “essentially agreed” a deal with Ukraine that would see Washington receive rare earth and mineral resources — which are used predominantly in electronics — in return for ongoing support.
“I told them that I want the equivalent of like $500 billion worth of rare earth (minerals), and they’ve ssentially agreed to do that,” Trump told the broadcaster.
