1:02Now PlayingRussia's Vladimir Putin will try to "charm" President Donald Trump and use KGB-style tactics to earn his trust when they meet in Alaska, says former US national security adviser John Bolton. #politics #russia #trump #ukraine #worldnews #us #putin #zelensky
Trump and Putin began discussions at a highly anticipated summit with the US leader looking to secure an end to the war in Ukraine.
Reporters later saw the two in a room with their aides, as the discussions formally began, but the leaders did not take any questions. Alongside Trump were US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and special envoy Steve Witkoff, while Putin was joined by Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and Kremlin foreign policy aide Yuri Ushakov.
Moments earlier, Trump had greeted Putin with a warm handshake and a pat on the arm in their first face-to-face encounter of the US president’s second term. The two leaders disembarked from their planes, walking across the tarmac to red carpets before meeting in a highly choreographed opening. Trump clapped as he watched Putin approach.
