Alaska Talks: Putin Says Ukraine War Wouldn't Have Started If Trump Had Been US President In 2022
Last Updated: Putin backed Trump's claim that his presence could have stopped the conflict from starting in 2022, saying, 'I can confirm that.' Russian President Vladimir Putin said the conflict in Ukraine 'would never have started" if Donald Trump had been the US President in 2022, during their first in-person meeting in five years held in Alaska. Trump has often claimed that the Russia-Ukraine war would not have happened if he were at the helm in the White House. Responding to it, Putin backed the view. Putin said that he had warned Biden against actions that could escalate the situation to the point where 'serious consequences in the form of military actions could occur." 'I would like to remind you, that in 2022, during our last contact with the previous administration, I tried to convince my previous American colleague, the situation should not be brought to the point of no return when it would come to hostilities, and I said it quite directly back then, that it was a big mistake." #WATCH | Alaska, USA | '… Today, when President Trump says had he been the President back then, there would have been no war, and I am quite sure it would indeed be so…," says Russian President Vladimir PutinHe also says, 'In 2022 during the last contact with the previous… — ANI (@ANI) August 15, 2025 At the joint conference held after the Alaska talks, both leaders described the meeting as constructive, with Putin referring to the venue as 'a logical venue given our countries' shared history." Putin said that he and Trump had built a 'very good, businesslike and trusting contact," adding that such an approach could help bring the Ukraine conflict to an end 'the sooner, the better." He also praised Trump's 'friendly tone of conversation" and noted that despite past difficulties in US-Russia relations, it was important to 'rectify the situation." While the joint press briefing did not announce concrete outcomes, Putin proposed holding a second round of talks in Moscow, expressing hope that 'Kyiv and the European capitals will constructively perceive all of this and will not create any obstacles or attempt to disrupt the nascent progress through provocation or behind-the-scenes intrigue." Trump, in turn, left the door open to the idea of another meeting, saying, 'I could see it possibly happening." He has recently emphasised his interest in a follow-up dialogue after the Alaska summit. view comments First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
