The US president said a peace agreement would be better than a "mere" ceasefire, hours after summit with Putin that produced little.

President Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin are scheduled to meet Friday at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson in Anchorage, Alaska, to discuss the conflict between Russia and Ukraine.

President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin concluded their meeting after more than two-and-a-half hours.

Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin agreed at their summit in Alaska last week that the U.S. would be able to offer security guarantees to Ukraine, according to Steve Witkoff, Trump’s special envoy,

Trump on Sunday said “big progress” had been made with Russia on the Ukraine conflict, as envoy Witkoff outlined that Russian President Vladimir Putin signalled for the first time he could accept Nato-style security guarantees for Kyiv.

President Donald Trump said on social media Saturday that a deal better than “a mere Ceasefire” is in the works with Vladimir Putin, hours after Trump’s high-stakes summit with the Russian leader in Alaska failed to produce an agreement to halt Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

According to UK newspaper The Telegraph, offering Alaskan natural resources to Russia could be part of a peace deal in Ukraine.

President Donald Trump is set to travel to Alaska to meet Russian President Vladimir Putin as he seeks negotiations to end Russia's war against Ukraine, threatening more tariffs on Russian energy if ceasefire talks falter.
