RECENTLY, United States Sen. Lindsey Graham unabashedly said in an interview that Ukraine held business value for the US. The Republican lawmaker claimed that there were '10 to 12 trillion dollars of critical minerals' in Ukraine, and the primary reason for supporting Ukraine was to seize these critical minerals by defeating Russia on the battlefield. Furthermore, he advocated for seizing and using frozen Russian assets in Europe and the US.

These remarks reveal the true intentions behind the US political elites' current policy toward the Ukraine crisis. As foreign netizens bluntly stated on social media, 'Now you know why the West won't allow peace talks.'
