The Trump administration has finalized an agreement with the Ukrainian government to set up a joint fund intended to aid the reconstruction of Ukraine, particularly focusing on investments in the oil, gas, and rare mineral sectors. Ukraine's Economy Minister Yulia Svyrydenko announced that the fund's management would be shared equally between the two governments. Notably, future military aid from the U.S. could count as a contribution to this fund. The agreement faced delays, including an incident where President Zelensky and Trump had a heated exchange preventing the signing.
"The Trump administration and the Ukrainian government finalized a deal creating a joint fund to boost the reconstruction of the war-torn nation."
"The fund would be managed 50/50 and that future military aid from Washington could be considered a contribution."
