Details: The secretary of state also noted that the agreement was signed thanks to "Donald Trumpʼs leadership".
"[This agreement is] a milestone in our shared prosperity and an important step in ending this war," Marco Rubio stated.
Background:
- European Pravda previously revealed the main details of the agreement signed on 30 April in Washington. In particular, it mentions 57 minerals and US military assistance to Ukraine.
- The signed agreement largely aligns with the key points made public by Ukraine's Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal earlier that day.
- US President Donald Trump said that the deal on minerals would give the US more than it has spent on Ukraine.
