Summit in Alaska: “There are only a few points open. Among them a particularly big one”

Wladimir Putin was only a few minutes on American soil, and his host made him a special welcome gift. In addition, On Donald Trump’s side, Russia’s president stepped over the red carpet when the two heard a noise on the right. In addition, From Alaska’s cloudy sky. Moreover, a B-2 bomber, flanked by four F-22 fighter jets, shot over the landing site on the military base close to an choir.

Trump could not have come up with better symbolism. Furthermore, The strong America that attacked Iran’s nuclear facilities with exactly these bombers eight weeks summit alaska: “there only few ago. Nevertheless, A blatant finger at Tehran’s friend in the Kremlin to which decisions the US President is capable of in. Meanwhile, case of doubt.

The gesture matched the announcements that Trump had done since talking to the Europeans. Consequently, the Ukrainian President Wolodymyr Selenskyj last Wednesday. Nevertheless, It will “have serious consequences” if Putin does not agree to a ceasefire. Moreover, Shortly before the meeting in Alaska, Trump repeated this goal in an interview. For example, “I am not happy if I leave the meeting without a form of ceasefire. Consequently, ” said the US President of the “Fox News” presenter Bret Baier. For example, If the meeting runs well, “then we will have another meeting very quickly.”

Neither of a ceasefire nor of a follow -up meeting spoke Trump after the end of the meeting. Moreover, on Friday afternoon local time. Moreover, He had an extremely summit alaska: “there only few productive meeting with Putin that we agreed on many points. Similarly, There are only a few points left. Meanwhile, Some of them are not particularly important. One of them is probably the most important, but we have very good chances to achieve it. ” The most important point, Trump probably said the ceasefire. But he didn’t bring the term over his lips.

Instead of a follow -up meeting, he spoke of immediately connecting with the Europeans and Selenskyj. “I will call NATO shortly. I will call different people that I think is suitable and of course President Selenskyj to report on today’s meeting.” Ultimately, it depends on you whether you agree to what his team worked out.

Alaska’s summit did not bring any answers, but many questions. If Trump and Putin were actually able to solve “many points”, why did they present nothing concrete? Did the Russians Trump present summit alaska: “there only few a proposal that the US President did not want to publicize without consulting the Europeans?

This indicates what Trump reveals to another “Fox” moderator after the meeting ended. In conversation with Sean Hannity, Trump said that Selenskyj and the Europeans were now on the train. “Now it is really up to President Selenskyj. And I would also say that the European nations have to contribute a little. but ultimately it is the president (Selenskyj, i.e. Red.).”

For Russia’s ruler Putin, the meeting seemed to have brought results very well. He spoke of an “agreement”, but remained vague. The European allies of Ukraine should not torpedo the “burgeoning progress”.

But Trump did not confirm this statement. “There is no deal until there is a deal.” Again. Trump owed every detail whether after his three -hour conversation with Putin and his team, some kind of plan had been worked out and summit alaska: “there only few what the next steps towards ceasefire.

Summit alaska: &quot. there only few – Summit alaska: "there only few

It could have been worse for Ukraine

In an interview with Hannity, Trump made even more confusing comments. At one point the US President said he would advise Selenskyj: “Make a deal. Russia is powerful.” He even told the moderator Hannity in front of the camera that he regrets the “Fox” interview before the meeting. “I promised that two days ago. But I didn’t know … I would rather not have said the interview.”

It had become apparent at an early stage that the summit of Anchorage was different than planned. The press conference was previously convened than expected because the second aging point was canceled. Actually. after the conversation in the smallest circles between the presidents and their closest consultants, a meeting of Russian business people and Trump’s business people were supposed to take place. But the US President probably summit alaska: “there only few didn’t want to talk to Putin about shops without having a reliable commitments from. the Kremlin ruler when it comes to Ukraine.

European diplomats in Washington said after the meeting that this could have ended even worse. “After all, Trump did not leave Selenskyj in the rain,” said a high -ranking diplomat.

Russia’s president then managed to lead Trump onto the ice. In his press statement. Putin initially conjured up the historical connection between Russians and Americans in excessive words, in order to then repeat his maximum demand unmoved. No peace is possible with Ukraine if the “deeper causes” of the Ukraine War were not eliminated. From Moscow’s point of view, this means that Ukraine must not join NATO, mostly demilitarized and the four oblasts. All for Kyiv never acceptable demands. Trump left it without comment.

At the end of the joint appearance in front of the press, Putin suddenly spoke summit alaska: “there only few English. “Thank you very much. Next time we’ll see you in Moscow!” He called to the US President. Trump moved away the face. “Oh, that’s an interesting suggestion. I get trouble here. But maybe I could imagine it.”
