Ukraine has proposed a deal to President Trump, offering to develop its mineral resources for continued U.S. military aid amid ongoing conflict with Russia. With an abundance of rare earth elements, vital for technology, Ukraine aims to strengthen ties with the U.S. and reduce its dependence on China, which dominates rare earth production. Ukrainian officials emphasize the potential of their untapped resources and express eagerness to collaborate with the U.S. on this initiative, ensuring essential support during a critical time in the ongoing war with Russia.
We are interested to work, to develop, with our partners, first of all, with the United States.
For Ukraine, such a deal would ensure that its biggest and most consequential ally doesn't freeze military support.
Ukraine's rare earth elements are largely untapped because of the war.
