GLOBAL — Discussions between US President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin are scheduled for August 15, 2025, in Anchorage, Alaska, at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson.
The meeting aims to address the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, with the White House describing it as a listening exercise to gain a better understanding of the situation.
European leaders and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky plan to hold virtual talks with President Trump prior to the summit to emphasize the importance of involving Ukraine in any potential agreements. No specific outcomes have been outlined, and territorial concessions remain a point of contention.
The summit confirmation follows tempered expectations from the White House, amid concerns from Ukraine and Europe about exclusion from peace decisions.
Recent Russian military actions, including advances in Donbas and potential false-flag accusations, highlight persistent hostilities. Ukrainian forces report retaking areas in Sumy, while Russia alleges preparations for provocations to disrupt talks.
