Scholz criticized Trump's proposal to exchange aid for Ukraine's mineral resources.

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz condemned U.S. President Donald Trump's proposal to provide assistance to Ukraine in exchange for its rare earth materials. The German politician was quoted by n-tv on February 3rd.
Шольц осудил идею Трампа о замене помощи на полезные ископаемые из Украины.

According to Scholz, utilizing the country's resources to finance support for its defense is "very selfish."
