26.02.2025 ⇢ Day Minerals Bought War Rights
⌨
Russian drone attacks killed two in Kyiv region - a prominent surgeon and his TV journalist wife - and five in Kostiantynivka. The full text of the US-Ukraine minerals agreement emerged, revealing direct links to security guarantees. While Zelensky emphasized Ukraine would incur no debt, Trump framed the deal as giving Ukraine "the right to fight."
Initial uncertainty about Zelensky's Washington visit cleared when Trump confirmed their Friday meeting. The Ukrainian government approved the agreement text, but Trump dampened expectations, stating Ukraine must "forget about NATO" and that Europe, not the US, should provide security guarantees.
Former Russian Foreign Minister Kozyrev suggested Ukraine should develop nuclear weapons in response. By evening, Trump acknowledged he "can't guarantee" a peace deal, noting Putin "wanted the whole thing," while maintaining his promise of seeking "the best peace agreement."
