European leaders reaffirm support for Ukraine after Trump-Putin talks

  • U.S. President Donald Trump met Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska on August 16, 2025, to discuss the war in Ukraine.
  • The summit followed prolonged conflict and resulted from efforts to shift from ceasefire talks to a direct peace settlement, despite Kyiv and allies' prior opposition.
  • European leaders including Ursula von der Leyen, Donald Tusk, and Alexander Stubb issued a joint statement backing Ukraine’s sovereignty and promised ongoing support and sanctions on Russia.
  • Viktor Orban said, “The world is a safer place as long as there is US-Russia dialogue at the highest level,” while EU’s Kaja Kallas warned Russia has no intent to end the war soon.
  • The summit sparked cautious optimism with planned talks between Trump, Zelenskyy, and Putin, but Western commentators noted a significant lack of meaningful outcomes and no ceasefire agreement.
