President Trump and Russia's Putin to meet Friday for Ukraine talks

WATCH: ‘I’m Going To Russia…’ Trump’s SHOCKING Claims Over Venue Change For Meet With Putin?

U.S. President Donald Trump has set off a storm of speculation after telling supporters, “I’m going to Russia,” just days before his planned August 15 meeting with Vladimir Putin in Alaska. This summit—the first face-to-face between the leaders since Trump’s return to the White House—was expected to focus on ending the war in Ukraine, with Trump hinting at a controversial “territory swap” proposal. Alaska was chosen for its proximity to Russia across the Bering Strait, but Trump’s new remark has fueled rumors the venue could shift to Russian soil. For Moscow, the meeting is already being hailed as a diplomatic victory, marking Putin’s first U.S. invitation outside the U.N. since 2007. But if the location changes, the optics and stakes could transform overnight, raising fresh questions about U.S. strategy, Ukraine’s voice in negotiations, and Trump’s real intentions. #Trump #Putin #AlaskaSummit #RussiaUS #UkraineWar #TrumpPutin #Moscow #BeringStrait #Diplomacy #Geopolitics #WhiteHouse #Zelenskyy #PeaceDeal #TerritorySwap #PoliticalDrama #USPolitics #Kremlin #WarAndPeace #Summit2025 #BreakingNews ~HT.410~ED.420~

BREAKING: Trump Confirms Trilateral Meet With Zelenskyy After Alaska Summit With Putin

In a dramatic turn after his high-stakes Alaska meeting with Vladimir Putin, Donald Trump revealed that he expects a direct meeting between Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky — or even a tense trilateral summit including himself. Calling the Alaska talks a “feel-out meeting,” Trump said Putin “wants to get it over with,” but noted that missiles are still pounding Kiev despite what he described as “great calls.” Trump added that 5,000–7,000 people are dying every week in the war, and Ukraine is now drafting 60-year-olds into combat. He insisted he gets along with Zelensky but disagrees with his actions. The proposed Putin-Zelensky engagement could mark a critical turning point — or a diplomatic showdown with the stakes at their highest. #Trump #Putin #Zelensky #UkraineWar #RussiaUkraine #AlaskaSummit #PeaceTalks #Diplomacy #WarInUkraine #Kiev #PutinSummit #TrumpNews #UkraineConflict #RussiaNews #WorldNews #Geopolitics #PeaceSummit #InternationalRelations #BreakingNews #UkraineCrisis #AlaskaSummit ~HT.410~ED.194~

Trump Declares ‘Liberation Day’ in DC, Deploys National Guard, Takes Over Police—Vows to Crush Crime

“Liberation Day” in Washington, D.C. President Donald Trump has declared a public safety emergency and taken direct federal control of the D.C. Metropolitan Police.

Ukraine has launched one of its deepest and most daring drone strikes yet, hitting the Lukoil-Ukhta oil refinery in Russia’s Komi Republic — over 2,000 kilometers from the Ukrainian border. This unprecedented attack signals a major escalation in Ukraine’s long-range capabilities, directly targeting Russia’s critical infrastructure far from the front lines. Meanwhile, Europe and Ukraine have firmly rejected Vladimir Putin’s proposed ceasefire, instead presenting a joint counterproposal to the United States ahead of a potential Trump-Putin meeting, according to The Wall Street Journal.
