So embarrassing! The real reason why the United States supports Ukraine has been revealed. U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham from North Carolina publicly stated that the essence of the Russia-Ukraine conflict is not a security issue at all. The reason the U.S. is willing to spend hundreds of billions of dollars to support Ukraine is entirely because Ukraine is the richest country in Europe in terms of rare earth minerals, with known rare earth values estimated between 2 trillion to 7 trillion dollars. Clearly, the U.S. needs to cooperate with Ukraine and does not want important rare earth mines in disputed areas to fall into Russian hands. Graham also believes that after Trump takes office, he will definitely establish close economic relations with Ukraine and may even reach relevant agreements to ensure that the U.S. can smoothly obtain these resources. Previously, Dmitry Medvedev, the deputy chairman of the Russian Security Council, also stated that the U.S. has been eyeing the vast valuable rare earth resources in the Donbas region, and Zelensky is aware of America's intentions, which is why he has been continuously asking Biden for weapons and funds. It is not difficult to see that the U.S. support for Ukraine is not to guarantee Ukraine's sovereignty and European security, but rather to obtain a large amount of mineral resources from the disputed areas between Russia and Ukraine. After all, compared to the so-called support from the U.S., the interests involved are quite considerable.
