Trump’s NSA Michael Waltz declares Ukraine to sign mineral deal ‘in very short term’ after Zelenskyy rejected it
FirstpostZelenskyy had earlier rejected the deal, saying it lacked security guarantees for the war-torn nation. Source: AP US National Security Advisor Michael Waltz on Friday said Ukraine will sign the mineral deal with the US “in the very short term”, after Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy rejected it earlier this week. His decision triggered a public spat with US President Donald Trump, who dubbed the Ukrainian leader “a dictator without elections”. Proposed US-Ukraine nuclear deal According to the US NSA, the proposed mineral deal with Ukraine would give American firms access to deposits of critical minerals including aluminum, gallium, and tritium. Tensions between Trump and Zelenskyy The rejection of the mineral deal by Zelenskyy prompted a sharp response from Trump, who then blamed Ukraine for starting the war and called Zelenskyy a highly unpopular leader with “approval ratings of just four per cent”.
