re: President Trump says Who knows if Ukraine has Rare Earth

Well Afghanistan must have something considering the Chinese have mineral rights there

I saw Rare Earth in Shreveport. I believe they were an opening act for Foghat or Grand Funk or Jethro Tull or Alice Cooper, some group like that , anyway.

Not sure why everyone is just ignoring the info in the Bloomberg article and repeating their own lines that Ukraine has all the rare earth minerals in the world.

I’ve read articles about this possibility too. It was about a month ago in the WSJ, an article that Ukraine actually has very little true rare earth minerals.

I've been hearing about Ukraine's minerals since the start of the war. Now, 2 MSM sources have come out since the election saying the minerals aren't valuable. We have Trump saying there is minerals. We have the MSM saying there aren't after they knew Trump was working to secure them.

The distrustful side of me sees the MSM positioning so they can downplay Trump's success when peace is achieved. They will say that Trump was fooled, and all the redditors will parrot it. I'm going to wait for more information that isn't so coincidental before I join with Trump’s detractors who have repeatedly been made fools of.

The article's sources also don't say that there are no minerals. It says that the USGS and other "commonly used" databases don't have the info. This is a little shady as the author presents the lack of information as proof that the minerals don't exist. What are the other reasons that mining information might be non-existent? Could Ukraine being a corrupt, war-torn region for decades have anything to do with a lack of information?

It's not a convincing argument as it's circumstantial.

Well they did have minerals. But Russia took most of them. I don't think russia wants to give them back.
