All right, Alexander, let's talk about what is going on with Project Ukraine.

0:04.5

Let's focus on the diplomacy and let's focus on the rare earth minerals deal, which has been signed.

0:13.4

And it is not much of a rare earth minerals deal.

0:16.8

It's more of an oil and gas deal and a weapons deal.

1:50.5
