Ukrainian President Folodimir Zelinski told Reuters on Friday that he hoped to make a deal with President Donald Trump to end the war with Russia.
During his campaign for his positions, Trump pledged to bring peace to the world, as many foreign wars were pushed during the Biden Harris administration. In an interview with ReutersZelinski said he was open to a deal with the United States regarding Trump’s request to Ukraine to provide the United States with rare land and other minerals in exchange for continuing financial aid.
“These sediments are invaluable, they are huge amounts of money, huge. This is why we need to protect it.” “If we are talking about a deal, let’s do a deal, we are just for that.”
The war of Russia has lasted for more than two years, as the Biden Harris administration provided $ 175 billion in economic and military aid to Ukraine, but the conflict does not show any signs of completion. Last year, Ukraine presented the “victory plan”, indicating the idea of allowing allies to invest in its basic minerals, according to Reuters.

With the control of the Russian occupation less than 20 % of the mineral resources in Ukraine, including nearly half of the rare land deposits, Zelinski Reuters told Moscow that Moscow could deal with North Korea and Iran.
“We need to stop Putin and protect what we have – the very rich Dnibro region, in the center of Ukraine,” Zelinski told the port.
A few days after his election, Trump warned Russian President Vladimir Putin against escalating the war against Ukraine during a phone call, and stated that he reminded him of the presence of the great United States in Europe. The invitation with Putin came after a conversation between Trump, Elon Musk from the Ministry of Government and Zelinski, in which the Ukrainian president said he left the meeting.
We will protect those trillion. We will prevent Russia from extracting minerals that will be used later to produce techniques for the three countries in the axis of evil. Help the Americans more, and therefore the Americans must earn more. In rebuilding Ukraine, they should have this priority. They will do. “
