Former Russian president and prime minister Dmitry Medvedev has blasted the deal, claiming that the deal will "break Kyiv" financially.
Lashing out at Donald Trump , he said: "Trump has finally broken the Kiev regime into paying for American aid with minerals," as he deliberatley used the Russian spelling of the Ukrainian capital.
"Now military supplies will have to be paid for with the national wealth of a disappearing country.
"And the US Senate, led by Republicans, is preparing to impose another round of 'crushing sanctions' against us. Let's see how the new administration responds.
"Trump's ratings have gone down, and the 'deep state' is putting up fierce resistance."
