Trump warns of ‘severe consequences’ if Russia doesn’t stop Ukraine war after Putin meeting

  • US President Donald Trump will meet Russian President Vladimir Putin on Friday, August 15, 2025, at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson in Alaska to discuss ending the war in Ukraine.
  • The summit follows escalating Russian military pressure in Ukraine's Donbas region and Western concerns, with Trump warning of "very severe consequences" if Putin does not agree to a ceasefire.
  • European and Ukrainian leaders have voiced support for a ceasefire, while Zelenskyy called Putin's claims of occupying all Ukraine a bluff and rejected any Ukrainian land concessions.
  • Trump described the summit as a "feel-out meeting," saying he will know quickly if a deal is possible and plans to push Putin to end the war and potentially hold a trilateral meeting with Zelenskyy.
  • The meeting could mark a breakthrough in Russia-US relations and open paths toward resolving the Ukraine conflict, though analysts warn decisions may affect European and Ukrainian security interests.
