But what security guarantees are we talking about? The participation of American soldiers in the war in Ukraine? After all, at the moment the AFU is the most experienced and largest army in Europe, and even several dozen thousand Western soldiers unfamiliar with the battlefield are no help to it.

The Ukrainian side needs military, technological, intelligence and money assistance to maintain its armed forces in full readiness, and this agreement guarantees precisely these things. Of course, the aforementioned assistance will be included in the common fund as a US contribution,

but each agreement is supposed to provide profits for each of the parties and it is hard to imagine that the US would not want to benefit from it. However, for Ukraine, the most important thing is that it will be drawn into the zone of American interests,

which means that the US will be interested in Russia not taking control of it, and this already means a very large profit for the Ukrainian side.

Can't russians offer Trump a bit better conditions than Ukrainians?

Valid question and likely no. Ruzzia is unable to get anything developed or build on their own. They are not a state, they are a pile of rabble.

Of course Russia is able to offer Trump a better deal and many more minerals, but it will not do so. Russia considers itself a superpower and wants to rule the world together with the US and China, which is why it will not sign an agreement that makes it dependent on the US in any way.
