Ukraine marketed its mineral wealth and offered Trump a mining agreement in an attempt to secure U.S. security guarantees. The proposal? Ukraine's resources would be under U.S. supervision until it recovered $500 billion, which is three times the amount it has spent on aid. However, Zelensky withdrew his support when Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent arrived in Kyiv to conclude the deal, claiming that the terms were overly biased. According to reports, Trump put pressure on Kyiv by referring to Zelensky as "rude" and threatening to completely stop receiving U.S. support. The Ukrainian leader was left with little option after initially attempting to use the agreement as leverage. The TLDR News EU source

Only a few days ago, he turned down the offer, citing it as a danger to Ukraine's independence. According to reports, Trump had criticized Zelensky's approval ratings, called him "rude," and threatened to completely stop U.S. support. Kyiv is now completing the deal in a matter of hours under duress. The Daily Mail is the source.
