It also did not include a clause requiring Ukraine to pay back the United States twice the amount of any future American aid.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-2\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The Ukrainians became more comfortable with the deal in the past few days after the Americans removed some of the more onerous conditions.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The draft agreement said Ukraine would contribute to a fund half of its revenues from the future monetization of natural resources, including critical minerals, oil and gas. The United States would own the maximum financial interest in the fund allowed under American law, though not necessarily all. And the fund would be designed to reinvest some revenues into Ukraine.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"css-13o6u42 eoo0vm40\" id=\"link-3a12b4d5\">Security guarantee<\/h2>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Mr. Zelensky had repeatedly pressed for security guarantees for his country in exchange for mineral rights, as Russia\u2019s war has entered its fourth year. But draft agreements reviewed by The New York Times included no such security commitment.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"css-13o6u42 eoo0vm40\" id=\"link-510b8bd5\">Approval process<\/h2>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">A final translated draft of the agreement was sent to Ukraine on Tuesday, according to the American official. <\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and his Ukrainian counterpart, the American official said, are expected to sign the agreement first and then Mr. Zelensky is expected to go to Washington for a signing with Mr. Trump.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-3\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<h2 class=\"css-13o6u42 eoo0vm40\" id=\"link-4260b111\">What\u2019s at stake<\/h2>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Ukraine controls more than <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/02\/25\/world\/europe\/ukraine-trump-minerals-explain.html\" title=\"\">100 major deposits of critical minerals<\/a>, according to a study by the Kyiv School of Economics, along with modest oil and natural gas reserves.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\"><strong class=\"css-8qgvsz ebyp5n10\">Titanium<\/strong> is used in construction, airplanes, orthopedic implants and as an additive in paint and cosmetics, including sunscreen, among many other things. Titanium mines in central Ukraine account for about 6 percent of global production, according to Ukrainian media.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\"><strong class=\"css-8qgvsz ebyp5n10\">Lithium<\/strong> is a crucial element in batteries, including those in electric vehicles, and in other industrial products, including some medications. Ukraine has a third of Europe\u2019s total reserves, although some sites are in war-contested areas. Before the war with Russia, Ukrainian officials suggested to Elon Musk that he invest in Ukrainian lithium mines.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\"><strong class=\"css-8qgvsz ebyp5n10\">Uranium<\/strong> is used in nuclear power plants and nuclear weapons. Ukraine has the largest uranium reserves in Europe.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\"><strong class=\"css-8qgvsz ebyp5n10\">Rare earths<\/strong> are a group of more than a dozen metals, much less abundant than titanium or lithium, that are used in many high-tech sectors, including green energy, electronics and aerospace. Ukraine has substantial reserves that are mostly untapped, and it is unclear how expensive they would be to extract.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-798hid etfikam0\">Reporting by <!-- -->Constant M\u00e9heut<!-- -->, <!-- -->Andrew E.
