The agreement between Ukraine and the US on mineral mining may be amended at Washington's initiative. According to CBS News , citing its own sources, the Donald Trump administration insists on viewing the arrangements of the arrangements in order to obtain more favorable conditions for the US side.
"The parameters of the agreement can change because the President now insists on a larger, better agreement ," the interlocutor said.
The previous agreement between Kiev and Washington concerned cooperation in the field of strategic resources, in particular the production of rare earth metals and other critical minerals. However, after Trump's return to power, the US side seeks to review the terms of the contract to increase the benefits of the United States.
Changes in the agreement can significantly affect the Ukrainian mining sector, as attracting US investments is important for the development of the mining industry in the country.
