A framework agreement on critical minerals between Ukraine and the United States is ready, it should be signed by the presidents of both countries, US Secretary of Treasury Scott Bessent said on Fox Business.

„The deal is complete, it is on paper, and the Ukrainian government has approved it. It is just awaiting the signature of the two presidents tomorrow (February 28). It is a deal on strategic minerals, oil, gas and infrastructure assets.
