U.S. President Donald Trump has announced a high-profile summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin scheduled for August 15 in Alaska, aimed at brokering a peace deal to end the Ukraine war. He described the meeting as “highly anticipated,” signaling a renewed diplomatic push amid stalled negotiations. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy sharply responded, warning that any agreement struck without Ukraine’s direct involvement would amount to a “dead solution.” He firmly rejected the idea of ceding Ukrainian territory, emphasizing the need to preserve sovereignty.
