"The highly anticipated meeting between myself, as President of the United States of America, and President Vladimir Putin, of Russia, will take place next Friday, August 15, 2025, in the Great State of Alaska. Further details to follow. Thank you for your attention to this matter!" he posted on his social media platform.

Trump will meet Putin in Alaska to negotiate a ceasefire in Ukraine. But Zelensky has objected to being left out.

It would be the first face-to-face meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and an American leader since former President Joe Biden met with Putin in June 2021.
