Why the Trump-Putin Meeting Worries Europe

The Alaska summit focuses on US-Russia negotiations over Ukraine, raising European security concerns and potential territorial changes, with over 20% of Ukraine's land at stake, experts say.

  • Russian President Vladimir Putin and U.S. President Donald Trump are meeting later today in Alaska to discuss potentially ending the conflict in Ukraine.
  • This meeting follows Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 and its annexation of four regions in September 2022 amid ongoing fighting.
  • Russian forces control 18.98% of Ukraine this week, down from roughly 26.8% in March 2022, with over 400,000 killed or wounded in the conflict.
  • Europe and Ukraine are concerned that the meeting could result in pressure on Ukraine to relinquish nearly 20% of its land, a demand that President Zelensky has strongly opposed.
  • The summit’s outcome remains uncertain but may affect the conflict's future, while experts warn that appeasing Putin could enable continued aggression.
