Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky is to meet U.S. President Donald Trump in Washington to sign a preliminary deal on sharing his country’s mineral resources, according to the White House.

Zelensky is looking for security guarantees from the U.S. to deter Russia from invading again in the future, should the war end, but cautions that a deal will depend upon the outcome of the meeting.

However, Trump suggests European peacekeeping troops should be stationed in Ukraine as part of a ceasefire deal, not U.S. troops.

Ukraine is home to significantly high concentrations of mineral resources (around 5% of the world’s critical raw materials) such as coal, iron ore, natural gas, manganese, salt, oil, graphite, sulphur, kaolin, titanium, nickel, magnesium, timber and mercury.
