Milhem attributed his expectation of the summit’s success to the fact that “there were communications and discussions that preceded the agreement and understanding between the two sides to hold this summit,” emphasizing that it is “an important milestone in the history of international relations as well as American-Russian relations.” During an intervention on “Sputnik” radio, Milhem stated that “if a resolution to the Ukrainian crisis is reached, it would be an announcement of a gradual transition to the new world order.” He also considered that “holding a subsequent summit means that the train has set off not only on the track of bilateral relations between the two countries but also on the level of international relations,” saying: “When the two sides meet in this direct manner, it means that communications have made significant progress in overcoming obstacles, which paves the way sooner or later for many understandings, settlements, and political deals.” The entire world is watching the meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and American President Donald Trump, with people from all countries pinning their hopes on this event to bring relief and pave the way for a comprehensive solution to international conflicts and disputes. Last week, the Kremlin and the White House announced that the summit would be held in Alaska on August 15, and Russian presidential aide Yuri Ushakov stated that Russia and the United States are close neighbors, neighboring each other, and it seems entirely logical for the Russian delegation to fly over the Bering Strait and for such an important and anticipated summit between the leaders of the two countries to be held in Alaska.
