Ukraine and the U.S. have reached a framework for an economic deal involving rare earth minerals, but it reportedly does not include security guarantees, as per sources in Kyiv. Kyiv is optimistic that the agreement will secure continued military support from the U.S., with the potential for the deal to be finalized by Friday. Former President Trump hailed the agreement as significant, suggesting its value could reach a trillion dollars; however, controversial provisions have been removed from the preliminary draft.
