US Senator Lindsey Graham: Ukraine Sits On ‘Trillion Dollars Of Minerals’
US Senator Lindsey Graham has argued that Washington must support Ukraine because of its lucrative natural resources.
During a visit to Kiev in September, Graham published a video standing next to Ukrainian leader Zelensky, in which the US senator said, “They’re sitting on a trillion dollars worth of minerals that could be good to our economy”.
“They just need weapons”, Graham implored, calling for more arms shipments to Kiev.
The US senator added that Ukraine is “trying to stop the Russians, so we don’t have to fight them”.
Zelensky expressed gratitude for the “bipartisan support” he has received in Washington.
