The United States of America prepare a full -fledged cooperation agreement with Ukraine in the field of production and use of minerals. US Finance Minister Scott Bessent reported that Washington had handed over to Kyiv a completed version of the document, which is currently being considered by the Ukrainian side. According to the official, negotiations on the agreement can begin next week, and under favorable conditions - the signing of the document.
"We have passed (Ukraine - ed.) A ready -made document on economic partnership. Now Ukrainians are considering it, and we hope that next week will start full discussions and may even be signed," FOX News said.
According to the information, the initial project of the agreement consisted of four pages and was ready at the end of February. However, the American side decided to expand it to make the document complex and detailed.
"Washington took advantage of the moment to move to the completed agreement. Therefore, I am sure that we will quickly advance and sign it," the US Finance Minister emphasized.
The Agreement is expected to invest in the development of strategic resources of Ukraine, the modernization of mining capacity and to create new opportunities to attract international companies in this sector. Of particular interest to the United States may be deposits of lithium, titanium and rare earth metals, which are critical for the development of the high -tech industry.
Ukraine has significant reserves of strategic fossils that can play a key role in the world economy. A potential partnership with the United States can not only attract investments, but also promote the country's energy independence, as well as its integration into international chains of supply of critical materials.
Cooperation with US companies can help Ukraine in creating new jobs, infrastructure development and implementation of advanced technologies in the mining industry.
