President Donald Trump announced on Wednesday that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy will visit the White House on Friday to sign a significant minerals deal between the two countries. The deal is expected to strengthen the ties between the United States and Ukraine for years to come.
Trump described the agreement as a crucial development at the start of his second term, emphasizing its importance by calling it 'a very big agreement.' The deal involves granting the U.S. access to Ukraine's rare earth minerals, which are essential for industries such as aerospace, defense, and nuclear sectors.
