Ukraine's Parliament Ratifies U.S. Minerals Deal In Hopes Of Securing Future Arms

"The minerals deal is now official and legally binding for Ukraine as on Thursday Ukraine's parliament voted in favor of ratifying the

controversial resources agreement with the United States. This was a final key step in its adoption.
The Zelensky government is hoping this will more firmly secure future military assistance from Washington. The vote was unanimous: 338 Ukrainian lawmakers approved of ratifying it, and none opposed. Trump administration rhetoric toward Kiev has softened. For example, Trump is no longer demanding that Ukraine quickly move toward holding new presidential and parliamentary elections."
