During a meeting with U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent in Washington, the Ukrainian delegation reached an agreement that the assistance provided before the signing of the minerals agreement will not be taken into account.
This was announced by Prime Minister of Ukraine Denys Shmyhal.
According to him, legal teams are still working on the document, but there is already «good progress.»
«The main thing is that we clearly defined our red lines: the agreement must comply with European commitments and must not contradict the Constitution and legislation of Ukraine. It must also be ratified by Parliament. Agreements were reached that assistance provided before the signing of the document will not be counted,» Shmyhal said.
