Russian President Vladimir Putin did not agree with US President Donald Trump on a bilateral meeting with Ukraine’s Volodymyr Zelenskyy or a trilateral meeting involving all three leaders during his high-profile summit in Alaska last month, according to Kremlin aide Yuri Ushakov.
Ushakov noted that Russia and the US reached “many mutual understandings" during talks in Anchorage, Alaska, as reported by Russia’s Ria Novosti outlet. “The visits by Witkoff laid the groundwork for the conversation between Presidents Putin and Trump in Alaska," he said.
