Kremlin Sets 15 Aug Alaska Summit for Trump and Putin Talks

The Kremlin confirmed that U.S. President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin will meet in Alaska on 15 August to tackle what Moscow called “all the accumulated issues” in their bilateral relationship. Kremlin foreign-policy aide Yuri Ushakov said the leaders will open the summit at 11:30 a.m. local time (22:30 Moscow) with a private discussion in the presence of interpreters. Following the one-on-one, Trump and Putin will be joined by their delegations for a broader meeting and a working breakfast. Ushakov added that the agenda will focus on resolving the conflict in Ukraine, along with wider trade and economic cooperation, though he cautioned that the length of the talks will depend on how discussions progress. The two presidents are expected to brief reporters at a joint press conference at the end of the summit. The encounter marks the first face-to-face meeting between the leaders since the imposition of the United States’ 145 percent tariff on Chinese goods in April and comes amid heightened diplomatic efforts to broker a cease-fire in Ukraine.
