And I mean, there's a concern that there might be an agreement that the Trump administration, a future president wouldn't support it or or maybe Putin would defer to Trump, but would invade after Trump leaves office. Steps will have to be taken to submit this deal.

And I think that means bringing Russia into the community of nations and finding ways to somehow address the issues that Ukraine has with Russia. It's going to be a hard slog.

Well, there's several things going on right now. The Trump administration has called for sending European and non-European peacekeepers to Ukraine. Europe is talking about sending something different. They want to send a deterrence force that would use military force to enforce a ceasefire and other peace agreement.

Putin is never going to agree to NATO ground troops in Ukraine that could attack Russia. That's not going to happen. Europe has to stop talking about that. But I think we can get Putin to agree to peacekeepers. Now, look, in classic peacekeeping, each of the parties get to decide what nations contribute to peacekeeping.

I don't think Putin's going to agree to British troops on his border, but he may agree to Irish troops. He may agree to Egyptian troops, troops from Nepal. There are many nations with experience in peacekeeping who I think would be acceptable to Ukraine and Russia. And look, this has to be negotiated.

I think the minerals deal is significant because it's something Trump wanted. And he thinks it will be in court for the U.S. economy. It represents the U.S. being paid back for our military assistance. And it was a sign of good faith by Zelensky to give this to him. I know people have said that this is some kind of a security assistance or it will shield Ukraine from invading.

I'm not really putting it that way because I think this will take a long time to implement. And in the short term, it's not going to make any difference. What it does be is that Zelensky is saying to Trump, I'm prepared to play ball with you.

Some of them are in Russian territory, but they're spread throughout Ukraine. And if they're actually there, there's more than enough rare earth minerals and energy to extract from the territory that Ukraine currently holds.
