U.S. President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin have met for the first time in Alaska, ahead of talks on a potential Ukraine peace deal — notably without Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
The two leaders were seen sharing light conversation and exchanging jokes on the runway in Anchorage, Alaska, at around 11:20 a.m. local time (8:20 p.m. UK time). They later posed for photos on the Alaska platform, shaking hands for the second time during the encounter.
Their last in-person meeting was in 2019, where they addressed a breakdown in U.S.-Russia relations, allegations of election interference, and the ongoing conflict in Ukraine.
