President Donald Trump has told his advisers that he wants to announce the agreement in his address to Congress Tuesday evening, three of the sources said, cautioning that the deal had yet to be signed and the situation could change.

The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Ukraine’s presidential administration in Kyiv and the Ukrainian embassy in Washington did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

Is the British deal for exclusive rights to Ukraine's mineral resources? Or can both the US and the UK extract revenue from those mineral rights at the same time?

Not going to happen if the grifter insists on NATO involvement, which he will.

The Brits got Ziggy to renege on the Minsk agreements, so the precedent has been set.

Here's the thing, Trump can make a deal with the Russians for even more minerals at a better deal.

They've been PO'd since January 20, 2025. The few posers left on this site prove that.

We've heard this before.

No sane person would trust Zelensky to follow through until he signs.

You simply cannot make deals with con artists, liars and people who show you no respect. The first step toward getting a peace deal is for Ukraine to replace Zelensky. He is their problem. Until that happens no further talks.
