Ukraine Responds to Trump's Demand

Ukraine is ready to provide the United States access to the country's rare earth resources following a relevant statement from U.S. President Donald Trump. This was reported by the British Financial Times.

“Of course, we are ready to work with America,” the publication quotes a Ukrainian source close to Zelensky. According to him, Trump’s statement regarding providing the U.S. with Ukrainian rare earth resources “seems aligned with the 'victorious plan' presented to him in the autumn.”

The newspaper's source revealed that Ukraine has offered Trump “special conditions” for cooperation on key resources, emphasizing the need to protect them from Russia and Iran. Trump stated that he is ready to continue supporting Ukraine if Kyiv provides Washington with access to rare earth resources.
