Ukraine does not have the amount of rare earth metals claimed by US President Donald Trump. This was reported by Bloomberg agency, citing the words of the expert in the field of minerals Javier Blas.
Javier Blas argues that Ukraine deliberately misled Donald Trump to get US military support and does not actually possess a significant reserve of rare earth metals.
‘Ukraine has scorched earth and no rare earth metals. Surprisingly, many people, not least US President Donald Trump, are convinced that the country is rich in mineral resources,’ – said Blas.
We will remind, earlier Donald Trump during a speech at the investment summit said that Ukraine had derailed the deal with the United States on rare earth metals.
