0:48Now PlayingWhat Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump shared in the back of the US presidential limousine on the short ride to their longest on-the-record meeting will likely remain a mystery.
There was a lot the two presidents left unsaid at the end of an inconclusive Alaska summit — most notably, they made no mention of a ceasefire in Russia’s war in Ukraine, Trump’s stated goal in going into the talks. Their get-together was capped by one of the shortest news conferences Trump has ever held.
The much-anticipated event was surprising for the lack of fireworks and the unusual restraint of a free-wheeling president who’d been upstaged by Putin in Helsinki seven years ago. This time, they took no questions from the packed room of journalists in Anchorage, leaving them to wonder about the details of the tantalizing agreement the pair had mentioned but kept under wraps.
