Minerals agreement with the US
Recall, Trump said that he wants to conclude a $ 500 billion agreement with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on access to rare earth resources and natural gas in Ukraine in exchange for security guarantees in any potential peace settlement.
President Zelenskyy said that the agreement with the US on minerals will be signed at the ministerial level when ready and under the conditions of guarantees. This document is not ready at the moment to protect Ukraine's interests.
Later, Trump said that Ukraine broke the agreement on rare earth metals. The agreement was needed so that the US could return the funds spent on supporting Ukraine.
The administration of US President Donald Trump has given Ukraine an "improved" draft of the agreement on minerals, which "conforms to Ukrainian legislation."
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that if the US wants to see specific figures in the agreement on minerals, then according to Ukrainian legislation, ratification by the Verkhovna Rada will be necessary.
On February 25, the Financial Times reported that Ukraine and the United States had agreed on the terms of a mineral agreement and were ready to sign the document in Kyiv.
