On Friday, US President Donald Trump and Russian leader Vladimir Putin will meet in Alaska. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
This meeting marks the first face-to-face dialogue in six years. Trump's main goal is to reach an agreement to stop Russia's war in Ukraine.
The meeting will take place at a US military base and will last several hours. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy was not invited to this negotiation and believes that decisions made without Ukraine's participation will be meaningless.
Russian President Putin, however, is not changing his position. He demands to maintain full control over the Donbas, Kherson, and Zaporizhzhia regions, as well as Ukraine not joining NATO.
Last week, Trump warned about imposing new sanctions on Russia. But after the meeting was announced, the sanctions' deadlines were extended.
This situation gave both sides the opportunity to reconsider their strategies. While Trump threatens with strict measures on one hand, there is also a possibility that the negotiations will be conducted in a listening format.
European countries and Ukraine do not have high hopes for this meeting. However, the outcome of the negotiations remains uncertain for now.
This meeting holds an important place in international politics and may influence the future situation.
