The Russian president has landed in Alaska for a much-awaited meeting with Donald Trump
Russian President Vladimir Putin’s aircraft has landed at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson in Anchorage ahead of the summit with his US counterpart, Donald Trump.
The meeting between the two leaders could last between six and seven hours, according to Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov. The summit will involve a meeting between Putin and Trump that will include aides followed by talks and lunch with the US and Russian delegations and a joint conference of the two presidents afterwards.
The two leaders are widely expected to discuss the settlement of the Ukraine conflict at the summit. Moscow has repeatedly stated that sustainable settlement of the Ukraine conflict can only be achieved if Kiev agrees never to join NATO and recognize the reality on the ground, including the status of new Russian regions that voted to join the country in referendums in 2014 and 2022.
The event’s agenda still goes far beyond that includes bilateral Russia-US relations, possible joint economic projects, and other regional and international issues, according to Peskov.
In addition to Putin, the Russian delegation includes Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, Defense Minister Andrey Belousov, Finance Minister Anton Siluanov, Kremlin aide Yury Ushakov, and presidential economic envoy Kirill Dmitriev, who has been a key figure in the Ukraine settlement process.
