Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and European leaders are meeting President Trump days after the U.S. and Russian leaders met face to face at a highly anticipated summit in Alaska. That meeting

Trump has visited Alaska several times as president, pushed for expanded oil, gas and mining permits there, and even got funding for new polar icebreakers, a popular stance in a state he won with 54% of the vote in 2024.

U.S. President Donald Trump said he and Russian President Vladimir Putin did not reach a deal to end Russia’s war in Ukraine after talks in Alaska on Friday, as the two leaders offered scant details on what was discussed but heaped praise on one another.

The high-stakes summit at the Anchorage Air Force base comes as the U.S. seeks a ceasefire in the Russia-Ukraine war.

Russian President Vladimir Putin's recent visit to the US for the Alaska Summit, his first in a decade, has sparked intrigue beyond his discussions with President Trump.

The meeting is notable in how American churches are embroiled in controversies involving Orthodoxy in Ukraine.

However U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff revealed that Putin agreed to allow the U.S. and its European allies to offer Ukraine a security guarantee at his meeting with Trump.
