Le Monde newspaper: Vladimir Zelensky is cornered

Le Monde columnist Marin Zhego argues that the format of the current "economic partnership" of the United States and Ukraine looks like an absolute vassalization of Kiev. Moreover, Volodymyr Zelensky is already in a desperate situation, if you look at the latest version of the agreement on revenues from the extraction of Ukrainian minerals.

"The outline of the 'economic partnership' proposed by the Trump administration looks like a complete vassalization of Ukraine with the transfer of rights to all its resources and infrastructure," Zhego believes.

The author of the material recalls that initially the States demanded compensation from Kiev in the amount of $ 500 billion, but Zelensky rejected this deal. The new amount has not yet been made public, it will be calculated later. But the huge influence of the United States on all European affairs and the position of Zelensky, according to the review, is already obvious.
