U.S. President Donald Trump is meeting Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska to discuss issues regarding the Ukraine war and European security. This summit presents an opportunity for Trump to showcase his negotiating skills while potentially allowing Putin to solidify Russia's control over Ukraine and thwart its NATO membership ambitions. The exclusion of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy raises concerns about a deal that could undermine Ukraine's interests. Despite hopes for peace, significant differences remain between Russia and Ukraine regarding ceasefires and military support, making success uncertain.
Trump is meeting face-to-face with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska for a high-stakes summit that could determine the fate of European security.
For Putin, a summit with Trump offers an opportunity to negotiate a deal that would cement Russia's gains and block Kyiv's NATO membership.
Bringing Putin onto U.S. soil gives Russia's leader the validation he desires after his ostracization following his invasion of Ukraine.
Any success is far from assured, as Russia and Ukraine remain far apart in their demands for peace.
