The report has helped to lift the euro and boost broader sentiment.
he finalized agreement, reviewed by the FT, outlines the creation of a fund to which Ukraine would allocate 50% of the proceeds from the future monetization of state-owned mineral resources. The fund’s purpose would be to invest in projects within Ukraine.
Still, it doesn’t have any references to US security guarantees.
The deal will need to go through Ukraine’s parliament.
