Trump isn't inviting Ukrainian president to Putin summit, Leavitt says
- The leaders of the United States and Russia are scheduled to hold talks in Anchorage, Alaska on August 15, but Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and officials from the European Union will not be included in the discussions.
- The meeting arose because Putin requested the summit through his envoy, while Zelenskyy and European leaders have been largely excluded, causing tensions over negotiating Ukraine's future.
- Zelenskyy has firmly rejected any territorial concessions to Russia and warned that concessions do not persuade aggressors despite increasing Ukrainian military challenges and morale decline.
- Trump stated he will tell Putin, 'You've got to end this war' and expects to know within minutes if progress toward peace is possible, while critics say Alaska is a poor summit location.
- The summit may influence the conflict's trajectory, but Ukrainian opposition to land swaps and demand for unconditional ceasefire complicate talks excluded from security guarantees and European participation.
