Officials on both sides have apparently agreed to the draft
President Volodymyr Zelenskiy plans to travel to the United States to meet with President Donald Trump to sign a minerals deal, which is crucial for Ukraine in securing US support. The agreement, which includes access to Ukraine's critical mineral resources, such as graphite, has been drafted and agreed upon by both sides, though details like security guarantees and military aid remain under discussion. Zelenskiy had previously rejected an earlier draft, deeming it unfavorable. Trump's push for a rapid end to the conflict in Ukraine has raised concerns about potential concessions that might weaken Ukraine's security. The visit may include meetings with Capitol Hill lawmakers, though the schedule is not finalized.
