US President Donald Trump held a summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska, which did not result in a ceasefire agreement for the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. Following the meeting, Trump conveyed to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy that Putin demands Kyiv cede control over additional Ukrainian territory, specifically the entire Donbas region in eastern Ukraine. Trump urged Ukraine to consider making a deal to end the war, emphasizing Russia's status as a "very big power." Despite the diplomatic engagement, no deal to halt the hostilities was reached during the summit.
