Trump and Putin meet for high-stakes summit in Alaska | FULL

Описание: U.S. President Donald Trump welcomed Russian President Vladimir Putin in Anchorage, Alaska, for a summit to discuss ending Russia's war in Ukraine.

The two exchanged handshakes on the tarmac before leaving together to sit down for their bilateral meeting.

Trump said Thursday he wants Friday’s summit with Putin to “set the table” for a future meeting between the two leaders and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy — which Trump is aiming to hold “shortly.”

Trump has been lowering expectations for Friday’s summit ever since it was announced last week, including the prospect of reaching any kind of ceasefire or lasting peace deal with Putin.

Russia currently controls around a fifth of Ukraine’s territory, and Zelenskyy and the Europeans worry that a deal set by Trump and Putin could cement those gains.
