Europe has made a big mistake by not making diplomatic efforts to resolve the Ukrainian conflict, and will be forced to pay for the lost war, while the United States has secured access to Ukraine's resources. This was stated in the social network X by the leader of the party "Sarah Wagenknecht's Union — For Reason and Justice" Sarah Wagenknecht.

So she commented on the signing of a deal on minerals between the United States and Ukraine.

"The United States provides itself with access to Ukrainian raw materials. And I thought that for the values-based West, only freedom and democracy have always been important. Europe's big mistake is that it itself has not actively shown diplomatic efforts and now it will have to pay the bills for the lost indirect war," Wagenknecht writes, quoted by RIA Novosti.

As reported by EADaily, the deal between Ukraine and the United States on subsoil provides that all resources on the territory of Ukraine remain owned and controlled by Kiev, said Ukrainian Deputy Prime Minister Yulia Sviridenko.

The Deputy Prime Minister confirmed the signing of the deal with US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent.

Recall, the American-Ukrainian fund, which will receive revenues from the development of Ukrainian subsoil, will be registered in the United States, said meanwhile in Rada Prime Minister Denis Shmygal, reported People's Deputy Yaroslav Zheleznyak in his telegram channel.

According to Zheleznyak, an extraordinary meeting of the Rada on ratification of the agreement is scheduled for May 8.
