Summary
Ukraine and the U.S. are negotiating a revised deal over Ukraine’s mineral and energy revenues after President Zelenskyy rejected an initial U.S. proposal to give 50% of proceeds to the U.S.
The Trump administration, which presented the deal abruptly, has criticized Zelenskyy’s refusal, with Trump calling him a “dictator.”
Talks resumed with U.S. envoy Keith Kellogg, but security guarantees remain a sticking point.
The controversy has strained U.S.-Ukraine relations as Zelenskyy insists on protecting Ukraine’s sovereignty and economic independence.
Can’t Ukraine sign the deal, and then just say “we’re out of the deal”, just trump is doing with WHO, Paris agreement and all other deals he’s cancelled?
