Vladimir Putin thanked Donald Trump for a ‘constructive’ meeting in Alaska, despite the two being unable to reach a ‘major breakthrough ‘ on the war in Ukraine.
The leaders met for approximately 2.5 hours behind closed doors at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson on Friday.
After the meeting concluded, Trump and Putin delivered a brief joint press conference exchanging pleasantries.
Speaking aboard Air Force One as it flew toward Anchorage, the president declared his mission was nothing less than to ‘stop the killing’ and demanded that a truce between Russia and Ukraine be reached ‘rapidly.’
‘I don’t know if it’s going to be today,’ Trump admitted, ‘but I’m not going to be happy if it’s not today. Everyone said it can’t be today — but I want the killing to stop.’
