Zelensky revealed details of the minerals deal with the USA

Zelensky called meeting with Trump "one hundred percent productive" and spoke about new agreement

As reported by TUT.AZ with reference to "RBC-Ukraine," Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in his evening address highly praised the recent negotiations with American leader Donald Trump.

Zelensky particularly emphasized the key point of the agreements reached: "The document does not include Kyiv's debt to Washington, the two countries will work with each other on fair terms so that each of them can earn."

"We spoke with the US President about our readiness to conclude an agreement - we talked about it at the meeting in the Vatican. In fact, now we have the first result of the Vatican meeting, which makes it truly historic," the Ukrainian leader emphasized.

According to the president, the agreement has already been sent to the Verkhovna Rada for ratification: "We are interested in ensuring there are no delays with the agreement."

"The agreement has changed significantly during the preparation process. Now it is truly an equal agreement that creates opportunities for investments in Ukraine - quite substantial ones, and in addition - also for significant modernization of production facilities in Ukraine and - equally importantly - modernization of legal practices in our state," Zelensky emphasized.

Earlier, First Vice Prime Minister and Minister of Economy of Ukraine Yulia Svyrydenko confirmed the signing of an agreement with the US on minerals, which provides for the creation of a recovery fund that will invest in Ukraine.
