Saul David: 我认为美国最终不会放弃乌克兰,但特朗普总统似乎希望以获取乌克兰的稀土矿产资源作为回报,来继续提供军事支持。泽连斯基的办公室已经表示欢迎这一提议,认为这是双方此前讨论的胜利计划的一部分。确保乌克兰及其资源的安全性,防止俄罗斯夺取这些资源至关重要。如果特朗普能够确保乌克兰的安全,他可能会支持一项为乌克兰提供充分安全保障的和平计划。 Patrick Bishop: 我对特朗普的提议并不乐观,这似乎只是另一个特朗普式的交易,更像是一场房地产交易,而不是地缘战略计划的一部分。特朗普似乎没有关注安全等核心问题,而是将重点放在了领土上,并且对更广泛的战略层面缺乏兴趣。我认为特朗普外交政策的驱动精神不是传播民主和自由等价值观,而是他自身的利益。他最关心的是他自己的声誉和美国的利益,因此他的政策实际上是一种半球划分,美国主要关注西半球,而对东半球的干预较少。如果特朗普无法与俄罗斯达成协议,他可能不会继续参与乌克兰问题。 Donald Trump: (引述)我们希望与乌克兰达成协议,他们将用他们的稀土和其他资源来保障我们给予他们的东西。我希望确保稀土的安全,他们也愿意这样做。

In this week's Battleground podcast Saul and Patrick discuss the first clear signal that the US will not abandon Ukraine. This is in response to Trump's comments that he's looking to do a deal with Ukraine where the US will look to secure some of Ukraine's rare earth minerals.

They also address a host of listeners questions including on what the effects of Ukrainian strikes on oil refineries are and what needs to happen for Ukraine's western allies to send in troops.
