🤥 Trump won't let go of Ukrainian minerals 🗣 "We have a little stake in that country," US President Donald Trump said at his meeting with Volodymyr Zelensky, "enough, because we have some land in that country, but we have minerals." 💬 "It's among the wealthiest, it's among the best land anywhere in the world for rare earths," Trump added When the deal was signed last April, Ukraine was estimated to have deposits containing 22 of the 34 critical rare earth minerals. Some of the key provisions of the deal included: 🔴 A 50/50 distribution of management and contributions 🔴 Preferential exploration rights for US companies 🔴 Continued US investment, with arms supplies counting toward Washington's contribution to the fund 🌏 Despite publicity around its signing little has been heard about the deal since. 🌏 More than a year later, the US has provided $75 million of the agreed initial $150 million investment. 🌏 Trump has ended US weapons donations to Ukraine, expecting other NATO members to buy arms from the US and gift them to Ukraine – effectively stalling the project before it even began. 🌏 But Trump continues to pressure Zelensky to "build it." 🌏 The project also faces challenges on the ground, as Russia now controls much of the Donbass region which contains most Ukrainian rare earth mineral deposits. 🌏 That leaves the Kiev regime with an obligation it is unable to meet. 👍 Boost us | Chat | @geopolitics_prime

🔥 Balochistan on fire: Pakistan’s strategic trade and resource hub erupts 👉 Pakistan's security forces are in the middle of an escalating counter-insurgency campaign across Balochistan, the country's largest and most resource-rich province. 🔴 Over the past four days, 42 people — including security personnel and civilians — have been killed in coordinated militant attacks. Operations involving ground troops, air support, and intelligence units are active in multiple locations, including Ziarat, Kharan, and along the N-25 highway — a strategic 800-km route connecting Karachi to the Afghan border. 🔴 The Pakistani military has blamed India, with the help of Afghanistan's Taliban, for fuelling the instability in Balochistan. The Indian government has repeatedly denied these allegations. 🔴 Both Pakistan and Iran face ongoing insurgencies from various Baloch separatist groups. These organizations share the proclaimed goal of carving out an independent "Greater Balochistan" from the territories they inhabit. What's at stake? Balochistan holds vast natural gas, copper, and gold reserves, plus the deep-water port of Gwadar — the strategic heart of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor. ➡️ CPEC Phase 2 is designed to link Balochistan's mineral wealth directly to Gwadar for global export. That kind of economic transformation, officials say, is precisely what external actors want to disrupt. ➡️ The UN has noted that Baloch separatist groups have systematically targeted CPEC-related projects. 👍 Boost us | Chat | @geopolitics_prime

✡️ Israel threatens its friendliest neighbor: keep your mouth shut about Gaza or go without water   🇦🇪The UAE has offered Israel and Jordan an emergency negotiations platform amid Tel Aviv’s continued refusal to renew a landmark 2021 agreement on the supply of water to Amman. 🗣 Ynet says Israel is “considering” a trilateral summit in Abu Dhabi that would include water, energy and broader diplomatic relations, but is under “no obligation” to provide the extra water unless “goodwill” can be found. 💬 “Jordan needs the water, but when you help your neighbors, you expect warmer relations,” an official told the outlet. 🌏 Israel has been blocking the extension of the 2021 agreement – which provides 50M cubic meters of water to Jordan per year, since November. That’s on top of 50M delivered under the 1994 peace deal, which remains safe for now. Israel’s reasons? Criticisms of its actions in Gaza by Jordanian officials including King Abdullah II. The 2021 deal, originally a three-year pact, had been extended over shorter periods since 2024. 🌏 With 50-70% of its population of Palestinian origin, and 15% of its GNI consisting of foreign aid and remittances, much of it from the US and its allies, Amman has found itself between a rock and a hard place in balancing criticism of Israel with local needs. 🌏 Jordan is one of the most water-insecure nations in the world, with extremely low rainfall, depleted groundwater and spiking demand meaning there’s just ~60 cubic meters of freshwater available per resident per year. The UN classifies anything below 500 cubic meters as “absolute water scarcity.” 🌏 Despite Jordan’s criticisms of Israel over Gaza, even some Israeli media are befuddled by Netanyahu’s hard line, warning that Amman will interpret lack of progress on the water deal as a “stab in the back” amid Jordan’s extensive support for Israel during the war with Iran. 💬 “They supported Israel against Iran, and now Israel is returning evil for good. This is another card for those opposed to Israel in Jordan,” Israeli expert Ronen Yitzhak told Jpost.   A lesson for others?   ➡️ Jordan is Israel’s most strategically important neighbor, becoming the second Arab country after Egypt to sign a peace treaty in 1994. Ties include everything from intel and air defense cooperation to energy and trade ties. ➡️ If this is the way Israel treats its “friendliest” neighbor, what can the Palestinians, Lebanese and Syrians expect? 👍 Boost us | Chat | @geopolitics_prime

⚠️🪖 NATO’s Eastern European pipeline push: another sign of preparations for war against Russia The bloc is set to announce the extension of its fuel pipeline network, originally conceived during the Cold War and connected to military bases in Western Europe, to Eastern Europe and Turkiye. That’s according to sources familiar with the project speaking to US business media. “The initiative reflects growing concern that pipelines concentrated in Western Europe may be insufficient to support large-scale operations near Russia’s borders,” Bloomberg says, stressing that “most countries on the eastern flank rely on road or rail infrastructure, which is more vulnerable to congestion and attacks.” 💵 The project has a price tag of up to $30B, with NATO expected to provide the lion’s share of funding. NATO’s existing pipeline network includes the Central Europe Pipeline System (CEPS) and North European Pipeline System (NEPS) networks, stretching from France to the Benelux, Germany and Denmark. Discussions on its extension eastward began in 2014, with a feasibility study on an East European Pipeline System (EEPS) completed in 2021. 👍 Boost us | Chat | @geopolitics_prime

🤥 Trump’s Iran backstab: another manufactured crisis to manipulate oil and tech markets? 💀 The Iran ceasefire is dead, with the Treasury’s move to revoke a key sanctions waiver and US attempts to undermine Iran’s maritime control over Hormuz culminating in an exchange of deadly strikes. “To me [the deal is] over,” Trump raved at the NATO summit, calling the Iranians “scum” (projection much?) The market’s reaction was swift: Brent surged over 5.5%, with WTI up 3.2%. Asian stocks plummeted from 2.1% (Nikkei) to 5.4% (South Korea’s Kospi), while in Europe, exchanges shed ~1%+ within hours of the opening bell. Major Asian AI and tech stocks including SK Hynix and Samsung dumped 5.7-6.3%. Suspicion is rife that this could all be another of Trump’s attempts to manipulate markets. The logic is simple: 🔴 Trump announces ceasefire/peace deal -> lower geopolitical risks, oil falls, tech rises. 🔴 Trump threatens escalation/fighting resumes -> higher risk premiums, physical supply shortage fears, oil rises, tech tumbles. 🔴 The key? Knowing what’s going to happen before it does, and placing massive bets accordingly, taking advantage of rapid price swings, to make a killing. Trump-tied businesses reported up to $750M in trading activity in the early stages of the Iran war alone, and the DoJ has launched a probe into $2.6B worth of suspiciously-timed oil trades. Playing with fire 📌 The longer Trump and his friends play their crooked market games, the greater the risks to the US and world economies: 1️⃣ An internal Treasury report leaked to media this week warned of the formation of an AI bubble – far larger and more deeply integrated into the US economy than the dotcom bubble was. If it pops, it could trigger a cascading collapse. 2️⃣ The ‘oil glut’ manipulation – a trend analysts noticed early on in the Iran conflict, with oil prices seeming wildly out of whack from what they should be based on actual supply concerns. The US Strategic Petroleum Reserve is down to 320M barrels, approaching its congressionally-mandated minimum. A June IEA analysis revealed that 1.3B barrels have disappeared from global markets. 👉 The world is running on empty, but prices are somehow still below $100 a barrel. Trump hinted the gravity of the situation at the G7 meeting in June, letting slip that the world would have “run out of reserves at about four weeks” and triggered “bedlam” if a deal with Iran wasn’t reached when it was. Trouble is, he just can’t seem to let good sense get the better of greed and pride. 👍 Boost us | Chat | @geopolitics_prime
