After months of bitter negotiations, the U.S. and Ukraine just signed a historic minerals deal that could reshape the war—and the future of Europe. Under the agreement, the U.S. gets access to critical mineral reserves in Ukraine, like lithium and rare earths.
Trump says the deal protects American interests and prevents the U.S. from looking foolish, but Ukrainian officials say they still have the power. Both sides celebrate, but critics say this deal could spark new geopolitical tensions, turning Ukraine’s underground treasures into the next frontline.
