Trump and Putin Set to Meet in Alaska for Ukraine Peace Talks

Former President Donald Trump has announced that he will meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska next week to discuss a potential ceasefire in the ongoing war in Ukraine. This meeting, the first in-person dialogue between the two since the invasion began, comes amid speculation that the negotiations could involve territorial concessions. As Trump gauges the reactions of European leaders, he appears to be handing Putin a diplomatic advantage while sidelining Ukrainian President Zelenskyy from the discussions. Both parties are expected to discuss a proposal that includes a ceasefire, sanctions relief, and potential land swaps between Ukraine and Russia. As the geopolitical landscape shifts, many are watching closely to see what outcomes may emerge from this high-stakes summit.
