Did you ever wonder why President Zelenskyy was not invited to the Alaska summit between Trump and Putin? The answer is very simple. Trump was negotiating a minerals deal with Putin and the deal was that Trump would withdraw American support for Ukraine and allow Russia to more easily overtake Ukraine if Putin would agree to share the mineral wealth of the captured country, Ukraine. When Putin realized that he could win the victory without ceding any minerals to Trump, that meeting for all purposes was ended. There is no way that Putin will provide an opportunity for Trump to take minerals from territory Putin deems as part of Russia. Zelinskyy was not invited because he had no say in the deal. He would have been at most an interested spectator as Trump and Putin carved up his country. This is the pattern of dealing/ negotiating that Donald Trump has exhibited during his entire public life. There is bargain he won’t try to take advantage of even if it means thousands of innocent civilians may die in the process or as the result of the negotiated final results. If you need proof consider the follow up meeting suggested by president Trump between Zelinskyy and Putin. Ask yourself what exactly Putin and Zelenskyy would have discussed. Zelensky would have said “stop bombing and killing my people” and Putin would have said “no, not until I control all of Ukraine”. Does that sound like a peace conference to you? A land swap would have been only a pit stop for Putin and the NATO countries of Europe know that is the first step only.
