Full text of the Framework as signed in Washington on 20 October 2025, read in full in a browser on 2026-09-23. Source of the financing clause ("within 6 months ... at least $1 billion in financing to projects located in each of the United States and Australia"), the instrument list (guarantees, loans, equity, offtake, insurance, regulatory facilitation), the price-mechanism and asset-sales clauses, and Section II's statement that the Framework creates no legally binding obligations. The financing clause does not itself say whether the $1 billion is per participant; the Australian release (src-pm-us-au-framework-2025) says each.
