 Trump: best protection for Ukraine’s nuclear power is US takeover.

 President Trump has told President Zelensky that an American takeover of
nuclear power in Ukraine would offer the “best protection” for the
­country’s infrastructure. The White House said Trump had “moved
beyond” the minerals deal for American companies to extract oil, gas and
rare metals that had been proposed as a way to protect Ukraine from future
Russian aggression. That deal was suspended after ­Zelensky’s disastrous
meeting last month with Trump and JD Vance, the vice-president, in the Oval
Office. It envisaged US control over natural resources and infrastructure
such as ports, but did not mention nuclear power.
