Zelensky says Ukraine ready to sign minerals deal with United States
Ukraine’s allies rallied around Zelensky on Sunday at a summit hosted by UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer who said many European leaders had pledged to spend more on security and assemble a coalition to defend any truce.
“The agreement that’s on the table will be signed if the parties are ready,” he told a late-night huddle with British media after a landmark summit in London.
