“Zelenskyy Seeks Peace: Trump Ready for Minerals Deal After White House Clash”

March 4, 2025
Trump says Zelenskyy wants peace, ready to accept minerals deal after WH blowup

President Donald Trump announced that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy expressed gratitude for U.S. support in Ukraine’s conflict with Russia and is eager to negotiate a peace deal with Russia. Zelenskyy also signaled readiness to sign a critical minerals agreement with the U.S. to facilitate peace talks. This development followed Vice President JD Vance’s controversial remarks questioning the effectiveness of an international security force in postwar Ukraine, favoring an economic pact with Kyiv instead.

Trump highlighted Zelenskyy’s commitment to achieving lasting peace and emphasized the value of American support for Ukraine’s sovereignty. Despite receiving the letter from Zelenskyy, Trump did not indicate any policy changes towards Ukraine, which included a recent pause in military aid. Vance’s skepticism towards a peacekeeping force led by other countries drew criticism, particularly from U.K. and French officials who highlighted their long-standing military partnership with the U.S.

The proposal for a critical minerals deal between the U.S. and Ukraine aimed to strengthen economic ties and deter Russian aggression. However, the signing of the agreement was disrupted during Zelenskyy’s White House visit due to a tense exchange between Trump, Vance, and the Ukrainian leader. Ukraine’s mineral deposits, including titanium and lithium, hold strategic importance for industries like aerospace and electric vehicles.

As tensions persist in the region, the debate over security measures in postwar Ukraine continues, with differing perspectives on the role of international alliances versus economic partnerships in ensuring stability.
