US President Donald Trump commented for the first time on the agreement on the Ukrainian subsoil after its signing between Ukraine and the United States. He believes that the United States will get more than it invests. About this informs NewsNation.
“We made a deal today that will get us, you know, a lot more in theory than $350 billion, but I wanted to be protected.” – Trump said.
He clarified that this is exactly the amount that his predecessor, Joe Biden, provided to Ukraine in the form of cash and military equipment. Trump also repeated that US aid to Ukraine far exceeds support from European countries.
According to Trump, during a meeting with Volodymyr Zelenskyi in the Vatican before the funeral of Pope Francis, he noted:
“It is very good if the Ukrainian president signs the agreement, because Russia is much bigger and much stronger.”
We will remind you that the agreement between Ukraine and the USA on economic cooperation, known as the “subsoil agreement”, provides for the access of the American side to Ukrainian resources while maintaining control over Ukraine. Within the framework of the agreement, the parties create the Investment Fund for the Reconstruction of Ukraine with equal management — 50 for 50, without a predominant vote of any party.
