The administration and Ukraine, the administration and Ukraine of US President Donald Trump, planned to signed a very more debated mineral deal after a disastrous oval office meeting on Friday, in which Ukrainian President Volodimier Zelancesi was dismissed from the building, four people said on Tuesday.
President Donald Trump has told his advisors that he wants to announce the agreement in his address of the Congress on Tuesday evening, three sources said, taking care that the deal was not signed and the situation could change.
The White House did not immediately respond to the remarks request.
Ukraine’s President’s Administration at Kiev and the Ukrainian Embassy in Washington did not immediately respond to the remarks.
The deal was held on Friday after a controversial oval office meeting between Trump and Ukrainian President Volodimir Zelanski, resulting in a resulting from the fast departure of the Ukrainian leader from the White House. Zelancesi traveled to Washington to sign the deal.
At that meeting, Trump and Vice President JD Vance told Zelanski, he said that he should thank America for its support instead of asking for additional assistance to the US media.
“You are gambling with World War II,” said Trump.
US authorities have spoken to the authorities in Kiev in recent times, who are about signing the deal of minerals despite Friday’s blow-ups, and urged Zelancesi’s advisors to understand the Ukrainian President to openly apologize to Trump, according to one of the people familiar with the matter.
On Tuesday, Zelansky posted on X that the Ukraine was set to sign the deal and call the oval office meeting “regret”.
Zelansky said in his post, “In Washington, our meeting in the White House on Friday did not go the way it should have been.” “Ukraine is ready to come to the conversation table as soon as possible to bring closer to permanent peace.”
It was not clear that the deal had changed. The deal that was to be signed last week had no clear safety guarantee for Ukraine, but provided access to revenue from Ukraine’s natural resources. This envisaged the Ukrainian government, contributing 50% of the future demonetisation of the natural resources owned by any state contributed to the US-Ukraine Managed Reconstruction Investment Fund.
On Monday, Trump indicated that his administration was open to sign the deal, telling reporters in a gagel that Ukraine should be “more commendable.”
“This country is stuck with them through thick and thin,” said Trump. “We have given them much more than Europe, and Europe should have given more than us.”
