Ukrainian President Zelensky is set to visit Washington to sign a deal on rare earth minerals with the US, according to President Trump. While Trump mentioned that the deal would bring much-needed money to Ukraine, he also stated that minimal security guarantees would be provided by the US to protect Ukraine from future Russian aggression. Zelensky has highlighted the importance of security guarantees, which remain to be decided.
The deal with the US is part of a broader economic agreement between the two countries, intended to secure US support during the ongoing conflict. However, doubts remain about the effectiveness of the deal, with Russia opposing European peacekeeping forces as a security measure against Russian aggression. Zelensky is set to meet with Trump in Washington before traveling to London to meet with European leaders.
The preliminary economic agreement between Ukraine and the US will involve significant US engagement in Ukraine’s reconstruction efforts. However, it leaves unanswered questions about crucial security guarantees sought by Kyiv, which will be addressed in future negotiations. The deal is expected to solidify ties between the two countries for years to come. President Zelensky has stressed the importance of continued US support to prevent Russia from destabilizing other nations.
This agreement is seen as a significant step in ensuring Ukraine’s economic development and security in the face of ongoing conflict and external threats.
