The question is will Biden agree for the U.S. to be one of Ukraine’s security guarantors?

Right now, the only countries on board are UK and Turkey.

Given that Biden and his family are compromised by Russian bribes and blackmail, I don’t think the U.S. will be one of the security guarantors.

I don't think Russia is quite to the point of giving up some of their gains in the east, including a land bridge to Crimea. But abandoning regime change and demilitarization, and allowing for EU membership are major concessions. "Denazifying" was always a BS justification and goal, so no surprise there and no impact on either side.

We shouldn't agree to give them more than what we are already giving them, weapons and intel. And both have been incredibly valuable. We could give/sell them some different weapons, help them build an integrated air defense system, command and control, etc. I would expect Poland, Romania, Hungary and Slovakia to have more direct interest but without the USA they are afraid to poke the bear.

Turkey alone could shift the balance heavily against Russia, but I'm not sure they could be trusted. If the opportunity presented, Turkey would probably use any conflict to expand her "empire" into Armenia, Georgia and Northern Syria or Iraq, and possibly try to establish a presence in Crimea. Or they could make a side deal with Russia and break their word.
