"This is a working version, which essentially reflects the position of American legal advisers. We are forming our position," Svyrydenko was quoted as saying by the Interfax-Ukraine news agency.
The Ukrainian government will submit the agreement for parliamentary consultation once a final consensus is reached with the US partners, she added.

Last month, the Ukrainian government approved a deal with the United States, which envisages a joint investment fund to be financed with future revenues from Ukraine's mineral resources.
The deal was set to be inked on Feb 28 in Washington. But its signing was postponed after a public spat between visiting Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and US President Donald Trump at the White House.
