President Trump signaled readiness to participate in security guarantees for Ukraine and mentioned possible involvement of the U.S. air force. The precise form and scope of those guarantees remain unclear, and domestic opposition within the president's base could limit U.S. involvement. Uncertainty also exists over whether Russia would accept any proposed guarantees. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy and European allies treated the offer as a major development and framed guarantees as a starting point toward ending the war. Analysts warned that security arrangements must be explicitly spelled out to avoid becoming a diplomatic poison pill.
After months of resistance, U.S. President Donald Trump has declared his willingness to participate in security guarantees for Ukraine, one of the key points in discussions about a peace agreement with Russia. He even specified that Washington could participate in some way with its air force. But it is still unclear what form these guarantees will take to ensure that the country is not attacked again in the future.
So far, the U.S. president's promises remain vague. For the moment, he has ruled out deploying U.S. troops to Ukraine as part of a hypothetical stabilization force. He has, however, indicated that Washington could provide air support for that force: We're willing to help them with things, especially, probably, if you talk about by air because nobody has stuff we have., he said on Tuesday in a phone interview with Fox News.
