The website reported that an Ilyushin Il-96-300 aircraft departed from Vnukovo Airport in Moscow and landed at Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport in Alaska around 5:48 PM Moscow time. Earlier today, Russian Presidential Assistant Yuri Ushakov stated that the main topic of the meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and American President Donald Trump will be the resolution of the Ukrainian crisis.
The Kremlin and the White House had previously announced that Russian President Vladimir Putin and his American counterpart Donald Trump would meet in Alaska. Despite the numerous topics expected to be discussed between the presidents, the Ukrainian issue is expected to be at the forefront. There are potential agreements that could be reached, especially considering the intersecting interests of the two countries in the region and the impact of the Ukrainian crisis on the situation in the Middle East, as well as the Palestinian issue, which is a central point of tension in the region.
Experts anticipate that if an understanding is reached between Putin and Trump in the near term, it is unlikely to be resolved in the first meeting on August 15.
