Democrats Criticize Trump's Historic Mineral Rights Deal with Ukraine | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

On Capitol Hill, Democrats are speaking out against President Trump’s historic mineral rights deal with Ukraine, accusing the administration of extorting a war-torn country in need. Meanwhile, the Trump administration and Ukrainian leaders defend the agreement as a launchpad for long-term bilateral economic cooperation. Russia blasts the deal, sarcastically praising the U.S. for making a deal with a nation it claims will soon “disappear.” Geopolitical strategist and Principal at Trilogy Advisors LLC, John Sitilides, joins to discuss what led Ukraine to agree to this deal and what security guarantees are included. He also discusses whether peace between Ukraine and Russia is possible and how this deal might affect the relationship between the U.S. and Ukraine. ------------- EWTN News Nightly airs on EWTN weekdays at 6pm & 9pm ET. ------------ Don't miss an episode of EWTN New Nightly.
