Trump Prepares for Putin Summit as DC Crime Crackdown Ramps Up

The summit aims to address the Ukraine conflict amid international tensions and war crime charges against Putin; Russia sent 52 journalists to cover the talks, Kommersant reported.

  • On August 15, 2025, Donald Trump, the President of the United States, and Vladimir Putin, the leader of Russia, will hold a meeting at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson located in Anchorage, Alaska.
  • The summit follows Russia's invasion of Ukraine over three years ago and was requested by Russia amid ongoing territorial conflicts and stalled diplomacy.
  • Putin plans to use historical arguments to claim Ukraine is an artificial state, while Trump aims to negotiate peace and warned of severe consequences if the war continues.
  • Trump said he would call Ukrainian President Zelenskyy first after the meeting, noting Zelenskyy’s absence and stating, "he could go, but he's been to a lot of meetings."
  • The meeting raises hopes for a ceasefire but also concerns it may allow Putin to reshape U.S. views while Ukraine remains excluded from talks.
