US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, during his visit to Kyiv in February, expected Ukraine to immediately sign the subsoil deal. However, his approach was mistaken, according to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
“I believe the problems lie in Mr. Bessent’s approach.

He added that he would not disclose all the details of the negotiations with Bessent, but he was not afraid if the US Treasury Secretary decided to reveal the full details.
