Ukraine’s top diplomat said officials are pressing ahead with the US toward an “acceptable” economic accord hours after President Donald Trump accused Kyiv of trying to renegotiate the deal.
Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha said Ukrainian officials were poring over the latest draft of an infrastructure and natural resources deal sent by the US last week as talks with negotiators in Washington moved ahead. Kyiv is prepared to endorse an agreement that provides security with a significant US business presence in Ukraine, the cabinet minister said.
