Summary
The US-Ukraine minerals deal, which grants access to minerals without resolving Ukraine's security concerns, has been signed despite President Volodymyr Zelenskyy emphasizing it's an equal agreement. However, U.S. Vice President JD Vance warns that the war likely won't end soon, with ongoing tensions and Russian drone attacks on Ukrainian cities like Zaporizhzhia and Dnipropetrovsk, along with destroyed Ukrainian drones.
