The need for Rare Earth Minerals, especially Lithium, took a big nose dive this past week, with China's announcement that it has developed a means to recharge Lithium batteries "indefinitely".
This means that instead of having to buy new Lithium batteries to power electric cars and other machinery, and therefore mine new Lithium for these new batteries, the need for new Lithium has been rendered obsolete in the near term.
So there is no longer the "critical need" for Lithium.
Please note that although a great deal of attention has been focused on Ukraine's five percent (5%) of the world's Rare Earth Minerals, no intelligent discussion has been devoted to the vast amounts of Rare Earth Minerals that both Russia and America already possess.
Neither Russia nor The United States need Rare Earth Minerals, and if they did, they could easily obtain them from Africa. So the whole focus on the Ukrainian Rare Earth Minerals deal is another Red Herring; rather, Trump was trying to recoup some of the money that Joe Biden wasted on the Ukrainian War, and bring about the one thing that Britain never wants ---- peace.
Here is a fairly good recount of the situation to date:
Throughout, remember that this country doesn't need Rare Earth Minerals; all we have to do is overturn Teddy Roosevelt's Natural Resource Conservation Plan and start mining --- and maybe we should do so anyway.
The Resource Conservation Plan hasn't substantially changed since 1908. It has served us well, but like any "Rainy Day" provision, the heirs have to recognize rain and dip into the savings bank when appropriate.
A more interesting issue has surfaced in the disparity between the U.S. and Ukrainian claims regarding the amount of U.S. Aid that Ukraine has received.
Congressional appropriations and additional aid through Non-Governmental Organizations indicate that around $500 Billion in aid was sent to Ukraine during the Biden Administration, not counting loan guarantees and other benefits.
To this, Zelensky says he has received only $77 Billion and it was in military equipment stockpiles -- not cash, which is fairly credible, as large amounts of this surplus military equipment wound up on the international black market and was resold to countries in the Middle East.
Sounds like -- as usual -- "Foreign Aid" to Ukraine was derailed and laundered back into the pockets of the Usual Suspects, in which case, we should be collecting from George Soros and the DNC, instead.
What about Europe's role in all this? Mr. Starmer and other EU government officers have misled Zelensky to think that they have and will deploy the resources to protect Ukraine -- when they don't and won't -- without The United States.
Of all the commentaries, perhaps Jeffrey Sachs' evaluation of the situation in the most correct and balanced way to look at it all, beginning with the eastward expansion of NATO in direct contravention of American promises not to expand NATO "one inch" to the East:
But so everyone understands:
It isn't that we learned everything from the British; it's that the British have been using us as a storefront.
They commandeered our bureaucracy and unlawfully converted our military to serve as a Mercenary Force in 1861. We've been their bitches ever since.
That's why there has been such a stunning similarity. Until now.
Contrary to Mr. Starmer and Mr. Merz, Ukraine is no longer a matter of urgent concern to us.
If the European people wake up and look around, they will see that the same Players have done the same thing to their unique National Governments --- overtaken the bureaucracies, dismantled the militaries, leveraged the courts and universities --- and quietly installed commercial police states in preparation for imposing their brand of Corporate Feudalism.
