The US and Ukraine have finalized an agreement to share profits from Ukrainian minerals and rare earths, which aims to reinforce economic ties post-conflict. The deal involves a US-Ukraine Reconstruction Investment Fund, facilitating repayment for previous US aid amounting to $175 billion. Scott Bessent, US treasury secretary, emphasized its significance in demonstrating a commitment to a peaceful and prosperous Ukraine. Ukrainian officials confirmed their control over resources, and the fund will feature equal distribution and voting rights between both nations, pending Ukrainian parliamentary approval.
This agreement signals clearly to Russia that the Trump administration is committed to a peace process centered on a free, sovereign, and prosperous Ukraine over the long term.
Together with the United States, we are creating the fund that will attract global investment into our country.
The fund would be split 50-50 between the US and Ukraine and give each side equal voting rights.
No state or person who financed or supplied the Russian war machine will benefit from the reconstruction of Ukraine.
