Financial Times: Ukraine investigates leak of mineral contract with the USA, officials to be polygraphed.


The Ukrainian authorities have launched an investigation into the leak of information regarding the draft contract for subsoil use, even utilizing lie detector tests.
According to Financial Times, Ukrainian officials announced that polygraph tests would be conducted among employees of several ministries. Details regarding this have not yet been provided.
The investigation was prompted by the publication of a copy of the draft contract by MP Yaroslav Zheleznyak on March 26. This document was obtained by the Financial Times and its content was published.
According to the obtained information, the new proposal from the Trump administration significantly expanded the previous agreement, replacing the framework agreement that had been concluded with Kyiv in February.
This situation has raised serious concern among high-ranking Ukrainian officials who believe that the new terms may negatively affect Ukraine's sovereignty, lead to the outflow of future revenues abroad, and create obstacles for the integration process with the European Union.
It is worth noting that WP published the implications of the agreement with the USA for Ukraine.
