Ukraine won’t be as poor a developing country in 10 years, but I am sceptical they will come away from this happy. Maybe it’ll help em win the war as the US now has a vested interest, but I’m not holding my breath.
Lmao, the US is picking apart the corpse of Ukraine like a vulture. The best case scenario for Ukraine is Russia taking them over because it will invalidate the debt that Western Countries have forced them into
Seems like they setup an empty shell corporation. It is ready for contributions. Unclear that Ukraine got anything, or US gave anything yet. Though maybe future mineral/resource licences get paid into this fund and US gets 50% of it even without giving anything.
Restriction against Russia is no good for limiting Ukraine’s future under reaonable/peace governance, and Zelensky’s constitutional authority to sign anything is expired.
