Zelensky: Ukraine still 'ready' to sign minerals deal with Trump
Ukraine's president tells reporters that despite a fractious White House meeting, he is prepared for the deal to go ahead.
Summary
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky says he remains "ready to sign" a US-Ukraine minerals deal despite leaving the White House without an agreement following a contentious meeting with Trump.
Speaking in London after a European leaders' summit, Zelensky emphasized that their fractious meeting only benefited Putin.
Refusing to discuss territorial concessions, he stated the "best security guarantees are a strong Ukrainian army."
Responding to calls from Senator Graham that he resign, Zelensky quipped he is "exchangeable for NATO" membership, saying this would mean he had "fulfilled my mission."

It's kind of absurd that "western" leaders aren't chomping at the bit for that minerals deal. USA might think they'd get the minerals without putting in the required effort, but Europeans can't hope for that. Maybe we just actually can't deliver what's required for a good-faith deal?

It’s “champing” at the bit. Not chomping

Meh, both are considered correct today. Might as well complain that almost every sentence in American English contains misspellings because it's different from British English.
-
No, words mean something. Either use it correctly because you know what it means, or don’t use the saying at all. Use a different phrase.

You’re just being pedantic now. Merriam-Webster among others say chomping is acceptable now. Language changes, keep up or shut up
-
So, any thoughts on this Ukraine mineral deal situation? It's interesting that you chose to debate the difference between 'champing' and 'chomping' instead of engaging with the actual topic of the post and my comment.

I’m not choosing to debate anything. I’m just saying it’s champing, not chomping. No debate. I agree with you otherwise
