This agreement has been approved by the government of Ukraine. We are ready to begin this cooperation at any moment,

In the public sphere, you hear messages from the USA that they are ready to sign this agreement, and from our side, the unequivocal message is that we are ready to sign this first agreement regarding the establishment of a joint investment fund. (...) This is our common position - of the President of Ukraine, the government of Ukraine, and the parliament of Ukraine - that this agreement must be signed with the USA. We are ready, ready for communication, ready for conversation, ready to come and sign. We are now expecting feedback. Publicly, we have these positive signals, and we are now waiting for specific agreements at the diplomatic level,
