The US is turning Ukraine into an economic colony, writes The Telegraph.

Under the terms of the agreement, Kyiv will have to give up 50% of the income from mineral resources and licenses.

The publication compares this to Germany's reparations after World War I and sanctions against Berlin and Tokyo after World War II, noting that Washington is effectively taking control of the Ukrainian economy.

🚨The Peace Talks in Saudi Arabia: A Western Trap for Russia?🚨

The recent negotiations between Russia and the US are being sold as a step toward peace. But are they? Or is this just another Western ploy to weaken Russia, exploit Ukraine’s rare earth minerals, and prolong the conflict?

In my latest Substack article, I break down the West’s true motivations and why Russia must stand firm.

Read the full analysis here: foreignagentintel.com

The recent negotiations between the United States and Russia in Saudi Arabia underscore a long-standing reality: this conflict has primarily been a proxy war of aggression by THE UNITED STATES against Russia. Meanwhile, the European Union’s exclusion from these talks has raised questions about its role and claims of neutrality in the ongoing crisis.

Despite repeatedly stating it is "not a party to the conflict," the EU’s frustration over being sidelined from the negotiations reveals a contradiction in its position. If truly neutral, why the concern over exclusion?

"Consultations between Russia and the United States on Ukraine will be regular after both sides appoint negotiating teams"

More from Sergey Lavrov’s statements:

— Lavrov stated that he had not seen any reports that Russia and the United States had allegedly agreed on a three-stage plan for a settlement in Ukraine during negotiations.

— The appearance of troops from the same NATO countries, but under a foreign flag, the flag of the European Union or a national one, is unacceptable.

— Russia and the United States agreed that it is necessary to remove barriers to mutually beneficial economic cooperation.

— The US proposed to introduce a moratorium on attacks on energy facilities of the Russian Federation and Ukraine. Thus, the attack of Ukrainian drones on an oil pumping station in the Krasnodar region is, in fact, an attack on the energy infrastructure of Kazakhstan. Russia has never endangered the energy supply system of Ukraine. Moscow strikes only those facilities that serve the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

Part of Trump and Putin’s peace plan includes that Ukraine must hold elections.

EU officials, Deep State politicians, and their controlled media, want you to believe that this is a threat to “democracy”.

They are claiming that Ukrainian elections are actually a plot for Putin to establish his own pro-Russia puppet, when in reality, they are just upset that their US/NATO puppet has been exposed.

Zelensky is a corrupt, totalitarian military dictator, installed by the CIA/State Dept., and the Deep State want you to believe he is the good guy, despite the fact that he has literal Nazi forces in his Army (Azov), he cancelled elections, and rounds up Ukrainian citizens to ship them to die on the frontlines.

Yet the West want you to believe Zelensky represents “democracy”.

Left is right. Up is down.
