During President Volodymyr Zelensky’s trip to Washington in February, the arrangement was supposed to be signed. However, the drafting was halted after Trump and Zelensky’s controversial Oval Office meeting cut short the Russian president’s visit.
The United States will have access to debris of nutrients that are crucial to its regional security, including lithium and metal, which are used in advanced fighter jets. The United States does not “own” the payments, but it will be assured of having access to their development.
A crucial negotiating point Zelesnky wanted included in the agreement, which will not ensure that U.S. assistance to Ukraine will remain. According to Ukrainian Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal, the two countries decided to establish a mutual investment fund in Ukraine with similar achievements.  ,
The British area may also consider novel, I emphasize fresh, military aid to Ukraine as a factor to this fund, Shmyhal said.
Evidently, this doesn’t make the United States obligated to give Ukraine a quarter. However, it fulfills one of Trump’s most pressing needs: that Ukraine reimburse the United States for the$ 120 billion aid they received.

It was described as a “historic financial partnership,” according to Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. His attitude toward Ukraine was more measured than his earlier claims.
The Trump Administration’s commitment to a long-term peace process centered on a free, royal, and prosperous Ukraine is clearly demonstrated by this arrangement, Bessent continued. No condition or person who provided or contributed to the Russian military will be able to take advantage of the restoration of Ukraine, to be clear.
The agreement grants the US preferred right to Ukrainian mineral extraction and specifies that Kyiv will have the ultimate say over what and where is being mined. Ukraine will even keep control of the soil.
“Ukraine owns all of our country and its geographical waters.” Yulia Svyrydenko, the country’s economy minister, said the Ukrainian position controls where and what is extracted.
The agreement, signed on Wednesday, goes far beyond that, including adding various natural resources like fuel, natural gas, silver, and brass, despite Trump’s claim that it is a “rare earth” deal.

Zelesnky generally leaves the offer with nothing or little because there are no” security offers.” Before making any responsibility to Zelensky regarding upcoming U.S. support, Trump wants to see how the war-ending agreements with Russia turn out.
The United States recognized Ukraine’s royal right to exist, which it did. This reputation is about the best that Ukraine could wish for because Democrats in Congress and the majority of Europeans have been saying that Trump wants Russia to destroy Ukraine.
KevinO’Leary disagrees with Trump regarding taxes. He thinks they ought to be significantly higher.
The” Joint Investment Fund” will act as a depository for the half-trillion dollars of aid that Ukraine will require to begin rebuilding once the war is over. The rest of the world and the EU aren’t in a rush to make a donation walk.  ,
Kyiv’s treatment will be a difficult, long path.  ,
