These additional conditions are the main reason that the Economic Cooperation Agreement has not yet been signed, despite the public statements of Trump and Zelensky, which indicate their willingness to sign the agreement, the agency’s sources on anonymity said.
Some interlocutors have said that the transaction could be traffic in the coming days. Other officials have warned that the US position could always change because Trump is known to change his mind.
Several representatives of the Trump administration have stated in the last days that the agreement on critical minerals is an important component and step on the way to the President’s plan on peace in Ukraine.
There are no signs that Russian leader Vladimir Putin is ready to agree to the cessation of its invasion, as well as the fact that the United States is pushing Moscow to compromise, unlike the requirements put forward by Zelensky.
In recent days, the United States has put strong pressure on Zelensky, suspending all military assistance and providing intelligence, which, according to European officials, aimed to convince the Ukrainian leader to embark on the path that meets the goals of Trump.
US National Security Advisor Mike Voltz declared on FOX News that if the parties were able to “move to these negotiations and, in fact, take some measures to strengthen trust, then the President will look carefully at the possibility of cancellation of this pause (on assistance) “.
In parallel with the requirements for Ukraine, American officials are negotiating with Russia, said one of the agency’s interlocutors, although it is unclear whether there is a pressure on Moscow to sit at the negotiating table.
Several European officials have stated that their assessment is that the ultimate goal of Putin – the capture of Ukraine – has not changed, and the Russian leader cannot be trusted. The war will only end if Putin stops the invasion, they believe.
According to the Fox News correspondent in the White House Jackie Heinrich, Donald Trump’s representatives will visit Saudi Arabia next week to meet with a Ukrainian delegation, which will include Andrei Ermak.
Recall that on Thursday Special Representative of the US President for Ukraine and Russia Kit Kelloggus stated that Donald Trump’s approach to the Russian-Ukrainian war provides for restarting relations with Russia.
