YouTube Description
as posted by the channelSupport our work
The Trump administration has signed a deal with Ukraine to give the United States a long-term stake in the country's oil, gas, coal and mineral resources as part of a joint investment fund with Kyiv. President Trump has sought to frame the agreement as repayment of U.S. military aid to Ukraine since the start of Russia's invasion in February 2022. We speak with investigative journalist Antonia Juhasz, who characterizes the deal as an "unprecedented" resource "grab" that allows Trump to reopen U.S. access to Russian oil and gas, which can be channeled through Ukrainian energy infrastructure.
