Access to the resources of Alaska and Ukraine for the Kremlin: Trump will offer Putin a mineral agreement - TEELEGRAPH

In addition to the Moscow access agreement to Alaska fossils, proposals also include the provision of access to the Kremlin's access to rare land fossils on Ukrainian land, which is now under Russian occupation. "There are a number of incentives, one of which can be a potential agreement on minerals or rare earth resources," a source known to US proposals said. Alaska, according to various estimates, contains significant unexplored oil and gas reserves.

Only oil reserves are concentrated about 13% of the world's reserves. Other "incentives" that are considered in the United States, abolish the restrictions on the export of parts and equipment needed to serve Russian aviation. Before the meeting of Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin in Alaska US President is informed by US Finance Minister Scott Bessent. It is he who studies the economic compromises that America can go to Russia in order to bring the ceasefire agreement closer.

Trump believes that the Kremlin may be attractive for minerals in Ukrainian lands currently under Russian occupation. It is believed that in particular the concentrated deposits of Lithium - about 10% of the world's reserves. "The two largest Lithium deposits are in Russia -controlled territories, and Putin has declared his rights to valuable minerals found in the regions occupied by his troops," said The Telegraph.

It is worth noting that the idea of an agreement between the United States and Russia about minerals has emerged a long time ago. At the end of March, Moscow and Washington began discussions on rare earth metals in Russia, including fields in Yakutia and Krasnoyarsk region, as reported by the Russian media "Izvestia". We will remind, on August 13, Reuters reported that Russia is about to launch a nuclear "brownish" on the eve of Putin and Trump's negotiations.
