Washington’s preliminary proposal was reported that the United States has been accessed by a $ 500 billion access to the United States as a payment for US military and financial support for Kyiv’s protection against a full -scale Russian invasion.
President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky noted that the US assistance in wartime has been much smaller than this amount and that the US proposal did not offer specific security guarantees.

The British edition of The Telegraph has published details of a mineral agreement that the US authorities have proposed to Ukraine, stating that the terms of this document correspond to those that are usually imposed on aggressors that were defeated in the war. According to the publication, the agreement covers “economic value related to the resources of Ukraine”, including “mineral resources, oil and gas resources, ports, other infrastructure (by agreement).”
The Telegraph notes that President Zelensky, who himself proposed the idea of involving the US in the development of fields in Ukraine, probably did not expect that he would face conditions worse than financial sanctions imposed on Germany and Japan after their defeat in the war in 1945, And worse than reparations, imposed on Germany as a result of the First World War.
Subsequently, Zelensky said that the agreement was not signed because of “legal issues”. After all, according to Zelensky, Ukraine requires security guarantees, not simply to give away resources.
The other day, the media reported that the Trump administration did not refuse to conclude a mineral agreement with Ukraine and now considers the possibility of signing a “simplified” version of a document, which would not talk about specific figures, but would only affect the intentions of the parties to cooperate.
On February 21, Zelensky announced the development of an agreement by representatives of the United States and Ukraine, not specifying what it would concern. According to him, it is an agreement that “can add to our relationship.” He expressed his hope for a “fair result.”
On the same day, US Presidential Advisor Mike Volt was confident that Zelensky would soon sign an agreement with the United States on minerals.
