Russian President Vladimir Putin and US President Donald Trump held a nearly three-hour summit in Anchorage, Alaska, joined by their foreign ministers and aides. Before the main talks, the leaders briefly spoke one-on-one, followed by closed-door negotiations in a “three-on-three” format. Ukraine was a central topic, with Putin stressing that despite US-Russia relations being at their lowest point since the Cold War, his talks with Trump could open the way for peace. Trump said the two sides made “tremendous progress,” rating the meeting “10 out of 10.” Putin proposed holding the next summit in Moscow, and Trump said it was possible, though politically sensitive. US media reacted cautiously, highlighting the lack of concrete agreements. This marked Putin’s first visit to the US in ten years, lasting just over five hours in total.
