This agreement refers to the extraction of minerals, oil and gas in Ukraine, to which American companies can access. It arrives after arduous negotiations and tensions between Kiev and Washington, marked by a verbal altercate between Donald Trump and Volodimir Zelensky in the Oval Hall in late February.
According to several estimates, Ukraine has approximately 5% of the world’s mining resources, although not all are explored or easily exploitable. Others are in territories occupied by Moscow or threatened by the advancement of the Russian forces.
