On February 26, the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine approved the signing of an agreement with the United States regarding rare earth metals. Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal today, February 28, reported that this agreement is a framework agreement for a future agreement to create an Investment Fund for the development and reconstruction of Ukraine.
According to Trump, the so-called agreement on minerals will serve as insurance against a future attack from Russia. President Zelensky stated that the final version of the agreement with the US regarding useful minerals does not make Ukraine a debtor. It does not specify any amount that Ukraine would have to repay to the US.
