On Wednesday, the U.S. and Ukraine announced a new reconstruction and investment fund, formalizing an economic agreement aimed at providing Ukraine with crucial support while ensuring U.S. interests. This fund seeks to utilize Ukraine's rare earth mineral reserves and comes after extensive negotiations concerning U.S. military and economic aid. The agreement not only aims to strengthen Ukraine's sovereignty but also addresses past concerns regarding unlimited support, emphasizing a commitment to a secure and prosperous Ukraine free from external aggression.
The agreement concludes months of fraught negotiations over whether the United States will continue to provide Ukraine with economic and military support as it tries to broker an end to its war with Russia.
This agreement signals clearly to Russia that the Trump administration is committed to a peace process centered on a free, sovereign, and prosperous Ukraine over the long term.
President Trump envisioned this partnership between the American people and the Ukrainian people to show both sides' commitment to lasting peace and prosperity in Ukraine.
And to be clear, no state or person who financed or supplied the Russian war machine will be allowed to benefit from the reconstruction of Ukraine.
