Amidst ongoing tensions in Ukraine, President Trump and President Putin met for a highly anticipated summit in Alaska. The stakes were high as both leaders attempted to negotiate a peace deal, but skepticism ran deep.
Representative Greene accused Ukrainian President Zelenskyy of trying to sabotage the Trump-Putin summit with drone strikes in Russia. Meanwhile, NATO defense ministers signaled their distrust of Putin and cast doubt on the possibility of any meaningful peace deal.
Russian troops made significant gains in Ukraine leading up to the summit, raising concerns about Putin's true intentions. Despite Trump's claims of very good progress towards peace, Democrats remained skeptical of his ability to secure a ceasefire.
While some hailed the summit as extremely productive, others questioned whether it would truly end the war. With tensions high and the world watching, the Trump-Putin meeting in Alaska left many wondering if it was a step towards peace or simply more political maneuvering.
