The message comes from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's adviser Andrij Jermak. He says that Ukraine is ready to sign an agreement on mining and extraction of rare minerals in exchange for American military support.

There is a great potential within the territories we control, says Jermak in an AP interview in response to the initiative from Washington DC and President Trump about a trade deal.

We are interested in developing and cooperating with our partners, and primarily with the USA.

Donald Trump has demanded access to rare earth metals, minerals, and gas in exchange for security guarantees. Many of the substances are necessary in modern technology, such as mobile phones.
