USA – The Trump-Putin summit in Alaska concluded after over three-hour closed-door talks, with Russian leader saying they had come to an “understanding,” while Donald Trump said that it was now up to the European leaders and Ukraine’s Zelenskyy to “get it done.”
“A lot of points were agreed on, there’s not that much, you know, one or two pretty significant items, but I think they can be reached,” Trump said in an Interview with Fox News.
“Now, it’s really up to President Zelensky to get it done. And I would also say the European nations, they have to get involved a little bit, but it’s up to President Zelensky,” he added.
Specifics on the deal framework were not immediately available, and it is unclear what issues remain outstanding after the talks.
Key sticking points heading into the meeting remained controversial land swaps between Russia and Ukraine, which Zelenskyy has ruled out, as well as what types of security guarantees can be provided to Kyiv to ensure Russia does not return to war against its eastern European neighbor.
Trump said a trilateral meeting between himself, Zelenskyy and Putin would be “set up.” The US president did not have a firm timeline for when that would occur, but said it would happen in “fairly short” order.
“They both want me there, and I’ll be there. You’ve got to see it out,” Trump said about Zelenskyy and Putin.
