“Donald Trump told this to journalists while meeting with the Cabinet of Ministers”, – WRITE: www.radiosvoboda.org
Trump also told reporters during a meeting with the Cabinet of Ministers that the United States was talking to Ukraine about the prospect of Ukrainian power plants for US companies.
The US delegation met with the Ukrainian delegation on Sunday and Russian officials on Monday in Riyadh. The negotiations, according to Trump, were focused mainly on the ceasefire in the Black Sea.
“We are talking about the territory now. We are talking about demarcation lines, we talk about energy, ownership of a power plant. Some people say that the United States must own a power plant … Because we have experience, ”Trump said.
Last week, Trump stated that the United States would soon sign a mineral and natural resource agreement with Ukraine. However, he did not call the exact terms.
Earlier this month, Ukraine and the US agreed to conclude an agreement on the development of critical mineral resources of Ukraine. Attempts to sign the agreement failed on February 28 after the dispute between Trump and Zelensky in the White House.
On March 19, Trump and Zelensky agreed to work together to end Russia’s war against Ukraine during a telephone conversation, which the White House called “fantastic”.
It is unclear whether the terms of the mineral agreement have changed. The previous version did not contain those security guarantees for Ukraine that Zelensky insisted on.
