President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin opened their Alaska summit Friday with a warm handshake, greeting each other like longtime acquaintances before beginning hours of talks that could reshape the war in Ukraine and the broader U.S.-Russia relationship. After stepping off Air Force One at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Trump applauded as Putin approached along a red carpet laid out for each leader. The two clasped hands for an extended moment, smiling as cameras clicked. Putin eventually pointed skyward while their hands were still joined.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed the meeting format had shifted from a one-on-one to a "three-on-three" session. Trump will be joined by Secretary of State Marco Rubio and special envoy Steve Witkoff, while Putin will be accompanied by Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and foreign policy adviser Yuri Ushakov. The move reflects a more cautious approach than the 2018 Helsinki summit, when the two met privately with only their interpreters for two hours.

Shannon Bream Previews Trump's High-Stakes Summit With Putin
Anchor of 'Fox News Sunday' Shannon Bream joins Fox Across America With Jimmy Failla to shed light on the leverage President Trump has over Russian President Vladimir Putin as the two world leaders meet for a high-stakes summit in Alaska. 'That is one of the things that President Trump can hang over his head at this point. There's this massive sanctions package sitting there in the Senate. More than 80 senators have co-sponsored and they don't agree on anything at that level, but they want to drop this hammer on him about these sanctions that wouldn't only go after Russia, but they would hit trading partners like India and China too. And Trump is very much threatening a lot of sticks along with him, maybe a few carrots.' Brian Brenberg Stops By To Preview Trump's High-Stakes Summit With Putin Jimmy and Shannon also discuss what it would take to achieve a cease-fire between Russia and Ukraine.
