He discussed this on Valery Savchuk's author program "Different People."

“It is simply being used for American voters, promoting the image of Ukraine as a geopolitical prize that America could obtain. They say it makes sense to invest because look at a country with such resources under our influence. We are promoting this from the perspective that we have something to offer. In reality, the truth lies in a completely different realm,” explains Alexey Kusch.

Yes, he asserts, Ukraine is indeed rich in natural resources, one of the richest in Europe, but not in the world, and we lack top-tier resources that provide very quick returns on investment. These, the expert continues, are primarily hydrocarbons, gas, and oil, but our reserves are depleted, and the prospects for increasing production are not very significant, plus extraction is too complicated and expensive, meaning we are not at the level of a major exporter.

Our iron ore, the program guest explains, belongs to private owners, and it cannot be offered to Americans. There is lithium, germanium, graphite, and uranium, but this is clearly not trillions of dollars, and in general, everything is either very expensive to extract or not in high demand.

“They say we have reserves worth 10 trillion dollars. But do you know what a large part of that sum consists of? It’s coal, which, firstly, is located in occupied territories, and secondly, within the framework of the green agenda, is not very appealing to the West, as they are moving away from coal. Therefore, coal is mainly for the Global South, like India and China, that’s where it goes. So this is a mythologized story,” concludes Alexey Kusch.

As reported by Politeka, Musiienko stated that the Biden administration was late with weapon supplies: “We need more.”

Politeka also wrote that Chalenko revealed what Trump’s position towards Ukraine and Russia will be: “He will act more decisively.”
