Trump offers assurances Ukraine will agree to ‘very important’ rare-earth minerals deal
president Donald Trump On Thursday, assurances were offered that Ukrainian President Folodimir Zelinski will agree to the rare metal deal, before the Ukrainian leader visited the White House on Friday.
As part of the negotiations to end the Russia-Ukraine war, the Trump administration is swinging to Zelinski to sign an agreement that would allow the United States to reach Ukraine minerals in exchange for the support that the United States provided to the country since Russia invaded in 2022. Congress has seized $ 175 billion since 2022 to take over to August, according to the council on the wings abroad.
Trump said on Thursday minerals The agreement will benefit the United States and Ukraine, and will allow the United States to reach resources such as oil and gas that “we need our country.”
“We will register a very important agreement on both sides, because it will really lead us to bring us into this country,” Trump told reporters on Thursday during his meeting with UK Prime Minister Kiir Starmer. “We will have a lot of people who work there and so on, in this sense, it’s very good.”
Trump also told the reporters that negotiating peace It was in the final stages, but no deal was secured, and he was frequently discussed in the plans related to the power of peacekeeping in the region until one is signed.
“I think we are very advanced in a deal,” Trump said. “But we haven’t made a deal yet. So I don’t like talking about keeping peace until we have a deal. I would like to make things.”
In addition, Trump said he did not expect Russian President Vladimir Putin any agreement to create peace with Ukraine.
“I don’t think he will violate his word,” Trump said. “I don’t think it will return when we conclude a deal. I think the deal will be made now.”
Trump also did not double the previous comments that Zelinsky described as a “dictator”, before the Ukrainian leader visited the White House on Friday.
“Did you say that?” Trump asked. “I don’t believe that I said that. The next question.”
The Trump administration advanced advanced negotiations on a peace agreement to end the conflict in Ukraine, and US officials took Russian counterparts in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia on February 18.

(Presidents Donald Trump and Volodimir Zelinski exchanged harsh insults with peace negotiations to end the war in Ukraine.
Trump and Zelinski began placing the player verbally on each other, as Zelinski accused Trump of advancing the Russian “misleading information” and Trump describing Zelinski that a “dictator” failed in his country.
“A dictator without elections, Zelenskyy moves better quickly or will not have a country, within the post -social media on February 19,” Trump wrote on a social media on February 19.
Russia has pushed Ukraine to hold elections as part of a peace agreement, nearly a year after the end of the period of Zelinski for a period of five years.
Zelinski remained in office leading Kyiv because the Ukrainian constitution prohibits the holding of elections under martial law. Ukraine has been under martial law since February 2022.

French President Emmanuel Macron has expressed similar feelings regarding working with the United States to secure permanent peace when he visited the White House on Monday. However, the United States also advised to be careful when dealing with Russia.
“We want peace,” he said in an interview from Blair’s house on Monday. “And I think President Trump’s initiative is a very positive version. But my message was to be careful because we need something big for Ukraine.”
“I think President Trump’s arrival is a changing games,” Macron said. “I think he has the ability to deter the United States to restore launch with Russia.”
