Ukraine and U.S. agree to framework for minerals deal, Ukrainian official says

Ukraine and the United States have agreed to a framework for an expansive minerals deal, according to a Ukrainian official and another person familiar with the matter. The White House has not confirmed the agreement and did not respond immediately to request for comment.

The Trump administration has pushed Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to repay U.S. war aid with such an agreement, amid broader pressure to come to a peace deal with Russia.
