The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine officially published the text of the agreement with the United States regarding subsoil use and joint investment projects, marking an important step in expanding Ukrainian-American cooperation in the fields of natural resources and security
The document was posted in the "Legal Acts" section on the official government website and was also published in Ukrainian and English, confirming its international status and significance. According to information disseminated by Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal, the available document is a 12-page text of the agreement signed on April 30 in Washington. The document details arrangements for the creation of the American-Ukrainian Reconstruction Investment Fund, as well as includes key provisions on cooperation in the field of subsoil use. An important component of the agreement is the arrangements for collaboration in the development of 57 mineral resources that are strategically significant for Ukraine and the United States. The content of the document envisages not only investment mechanisms but also places significant emphasis on military assistance from the United States. It is already known that the signed agreement aligns with the earlier statements by Prime Minister Shmyhal, focusing on strengthening the country’s defense potential through international support in the extraction and utilization of natural resources. A source from "European Pravda" provides additional details: the list specifies particular areas of cooperation, which include not only economic growth but also enhancing Ukraine’s defense capabilities. Within the framework of the agreement, the United States commits to providing military aid, enabling Ukraine to reinforce its positions in the face of Russian aggression. On the political level, the American side emphasizes that this agreement will benefit the U.S. more than the expenses incurred previously on the Ukrainian issue. Statements by high-ranking officials indicate the strategic importance of the deal for both parties, as well as the United States’ intention to solidify its position in the region by supporting Ukraine in its fight for sovereignty and stability. Overall, the publication of the agreement’s text and its public presentation serve as a message to the international community about Kyiv and Washington’s serious intentions to deepen cooperation in vital areas that are of long-term strategic importance for both countries and the region as a whole.
