does the UK have a mineral deal with Ukraine?
Yes, the UK has a mineral agreement with Ukraine. In January 2025, UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky signed a 100-year partnership that includes a clause on minerals. This agreement focuses on maximizing the benefits of Ukraine's natural resources and supporting the development of a critical minerals strategy.
The deal is part of broader cooperation between the two countries, covering areas like defense, security, and economic development. It aligns with efforts to secure access to critical materials essential for industries like technology and defense. If you'd like, I can help you explore more about this partnership!
