Summary of "Trump Putin Meeting Update : 11 बजते ही ने पुतिन ने कर दिया बड़ा ऐलान! | Alaska | Zelensky |Top News"
On August 15, 2025, a nearly three-hour high-profile meeting took place in Anchorage, Alaska, between US President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin, aiming to find a resolution to the ongoing war in Ukraine. The discussions covered regional agreements, ceasefire possibilities, troop transfers, and US security guarantees for Ukraine. However, no concrete agreements were reached during the meeting. Trump described the talks as positive, emphasizing consensus on many points and expressing a desire to stop the ongoing loss of lives. He appealed to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to reach a quick agreement and urged European countries to take active roles in the peace process.
Putin called the talks useful and claimed that the war would not have occurred in 2022 if Trump had been president. He urged Ukraine and Europe not to obstruct progress. Meanwhile, Zelensky reacted positively to the meeting, supporting Trump’s proposal for a trilateral meeting involving Ukraine, the US, and Russia. Zelensky planned to meet Trump in Washington, D.C., to discuss further details on ending the war and securing peace, noting positive signals from the US regarding Ukraine’s security guarantees.
The meeting also brought to light a sensitive humanitarian issue. Melania Trump, though not present at the meeting, sent a letter via President Trump to Putin expressing concern about the abduction of approximately 19,500 Ukrainian children during the war. Ukraine has accused Russia of forcibly taking thousands of children into Russian custody or occupied territories, labeling it a genocide under international law. The UN Human Rights Office has reported widespread suffering and rights violations of Ukrainian children since Russia’s full-scale invasion in 2022. Russia claims it is protecting vulnerable children, but Kyiv and Western countries consider these actions war crimes.
While Trump praised the meeting as extremely positive, former NATO ambassador Douglas Lute criticized it, stating Trump gained little and that Putin’s global image was strengthened. Trump also accused President Joe Biden of failing to stop the war and referenced Hillary Clinton’s Nobel Prize statement.
Overall, the meeting was seen as a significant diplomatic effort with cautious optimism but no immediate breakthroughs, leaving the world awaiting tangible outcomes.
