Trump Says Preparing Putin-Zelensky Meeting Ahead of Trilateral Summit

  • A US-Russia summit took place on Friday in Alaska between President Trump and President Putin to discuss peace prospects for Ukraine.
  • The talks followed ongoing calls for American-supported security guarantees for Ukraine amid Russia's demands for territorial concessions and Ukraine’s rejection of past agreements.
  • Trump conveyed a proposal offering Article 5-like collective defense protections for Ukraine without NATO membership, which Putin tentatively agreed to, while Ukraine seeks legally binding guarantees.
  • Six European leaders joined Ukrainian President Zelenskyy for a planned Monday meeting with Trump in Washington to coordinate on security guarantees amid ongoing uncertainties about enforcement.
  • The summit generated guarded hope for establishing a long-term peace agreement, while also sparking concerns that pressure from Europe or vague conditions might undermine progress or compel Ukraine to make unwanted concessions.
