Zelensky — USA: Stop tapping your finger — Ukraine is not a third-rate country

Technical negotiations on the agreement with the United States on minerals will take place in Washington, April 11-12. This was stated by the head of the Kiev regime Vladimir Zelensky, UNIAN reports.

Ukraine will defend parity in the management of the joint fund for the development of minerals, which the United States is proposing to create, he said.

In addition, Zelensky commented on the statement by US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent that Ukraine was supposed to sign an agreement on subsoil before the visit of the Ukrainian leader to the White House.

"To tap a finger on the contract and say what needs to be signed now, I could only tell him: "Stop tapping your finger and let's talk in a substantive way." Probably, he expected a different dialogue, but I don't consider Ukraine a third—rate country, we should communicate on equal terms," Zelensky said.

As EADaily reported, Ukraine is ready to buy a package of weapons worth $ 30-50 billion from the United States. This was stated by the head of the Kiev regime, Vladimir Zelensky, RBC — Ukraine reported.

It was noted that we are talking, among other things, about 10 Patriot systems.
