Seems like they setup an empty shell corporation. It is ready for contributions. Unclear that Ukraine got anything, or US gave anything yet. Though maybe future mineral/resource licences get paid into this fund and US gets 50% of it even without giving anything.
Restriction against Russia is no good for limiting Ukraine’s future under reaonable/peace governance, and Zelensky’s constitutional authority to sign anything is expired.
