Ukraine United States. economic partnership. Reconstruction Investment Fund

russian media and social media users write about this. On 30 April, Ukraine and the United States signed an agreement on economic partnership and the establishment of the Reconstruction Investment Fund. In fact, according to the agreement between the US and Ukraine, subsoil remains Ukrainian property. Nevertheless, russian propaganda is trying to present this agreement as a ‘sale’ and the final transfer of Ukraine to US control.

"All resources on our territory and in our territorial waters belong to Ukraine. It is the Ukrainian state that determines where and what to extract," said Yulia Svyrydenko, Minister of Economy of Ukraine: https://www.facebook.com/yulia.svyrydenko/posts/pfbid0fEC77cSqtiH9pdTpg7VQtspRFfT61RPRfyj6XbW9nJeJL6wJLAs8UTfHYkVcrJwql?locale=uk_UA
So, the US did not ‘buy’ Ukraine, but rather invest in mineral, oil and gas extraction projects, as well as in related infrastructure or processing. In doing so, the United States has demonstrated its commitment to Ukraine's security, recovery and reconstruction. Here are some of the points of the agreement:
● The Fund will provide financing for critical projects in the field of mineral development, which will contribute to the development of Ukraine's economy.● The Fund's resources will be invested exclusively in Ukraine - in mining projects or infrastructure rehabilitation.● Ukraine retains full control over its own resources, and state-owned companies also remain in Ukrainian ownership.● The agreement is in line with the Constitution of Ukraine, does not in any way impede Ukraine's European integration, and does not violate Kyiv's other international obligations.● This Agreement is a tool for attracting investment in the development of Ukraine's economy and deepening the strategic partnership between Ukraine and the United States.
