Both U.S. and Ukrainian Officials are now stating that they are close to signing the “Rare Earth Minerals Deal” which has been hotly debated between the two countries over the last week, with President Donald J. Trump stating that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky could travel to the White House next week or the week after to sign the Deal. According to those who have read the most recent draft of the Deal, significant changes have been made which appear to favor Ukraine, including stating that the U.S. expresses a desire to see Ukraine remain “free, sovereign and secure,” though it still does not specify any kind of kind of security or military guarantees that have been requested by Zelensky. The Deal still calls for the creation of a “Reconstruction Investment Fund” which Ukraine would funding through 50% of all revenue from the extraction of minerals, oils and gas, however the demand that Ukraine continue to contribute until the fund reaches $500 billion has been dropped as well as a stipulation that the fund be 100% controlled by the United States; with a section stating, “The Government of the United States of America intends to provide a long-term financial commitment to the development of a stable and economically prosperous Ukraine - so as to invest in projects in Ukraine and attract investments to increase development.” Lastly, the draft contains a provision on the development of mining projects in what the text calls territories “temporarily occupied by the Russian Federation, in the event such areas are de-occupied,” which is where much of Ukraine’s mineral wealth is located.
