Leaked Ukraine-US Mineral Deal: Exploitation or Survival Strategy?

The US and Ukraine are nearing a finalized agreement establishing a reconstruction investment fund, focusing on mineral exploitation. A key negotiating round will occur in Washington, D.C., from April 21-26, 2025, aiming for a completed deal by then. This fund would grant the US significant control over Ukrainian resource projects, including a potential veto on new initiatives. The US aims to recoup its substantial financial and military aid through this agreement, a key factor driving the negotiations. Concerns about potential conflicts with the EU are acknowledged, but the US will not interfere with Ukraine’s obligations to the EU.
