Despite his positive outlook towards the meeting, Trump refused to reveal the 'areas of disagreement' between him and Putin. 'No, I'd rather not. I guess somebody's gonna go public with it, they'll figure it out. But no, I don't want to do that, I want to see if we can get it done,' he told Fox News. The ball is in Zelenskyy's court While speaking to the American news outlet, the president made it clear that he is now putting the onus on Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to negotiate a ceasefire. He emphasised that he would soon be setting up a meeting with the Ukrainian leader and his Russian counterpart. 'Now it's really up to President Zelensky to get it done,' Trump said in a Fox News interview following his sitdown with Putin in Alaska. 'They're going to set up a meeting now between President Zelensky and President Putin, and me, I guess.' 'I want to make sure it gets done,' he added.

After meeting with Trump in Alaska, Putin makes shocking statement on Ukraine War, says if Trump were...
Russian President Vladimir Putin on Friday (local time) said that if US President Donald Trump had been in power in 2022, the Russia-Ukraine conflict would likely never have happened — a claim Trump has frequently raised several times, blaming his predecessor, Joe Biden, for the war. Putin stated that in 2022, he had cautioned former US President Biden that the tensions between the two nations should not be allowed to reach a point of no return. He made this statement in a joint press conference after nearly three hours of talks with Trump. Putin stated, '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.' Furthermore, he added, 'During the last contact with the previous administration in 2022, I tried to convince my previous American colleague that the situation should not be brought to the point of no return when it comes to hostilities. I said it directly back then that it is a big mistake.' Putin said that on Friday's negotiations had been useful and were held in a constructive atmosphere. The Alaska summit between Trump and Putin, held at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson in Anchorage, included top officials from both sides. Putin was joined by foreign policy aide Yury Ushakov and Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, while Trump was accompanied by Secretary of State Marco Rubio and US special envoy Steve Witkoff.

Relief for India in the offing? Trump says he may have to think about tariffs on Russian oil buyers 'in 2 or 3 weeks'
Following a meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska, U.S. President Donald Trump stated he doesn't foresee the immediate need for retaliatory tariffs on countries purchasing Russian oil. However, Trump indicated this situation might change, suggesting he may need to consider such tariffs in the coming weeks, depending on future developments. Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads Trump tariffs and Russian oil Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads No pause on Russian oil U.S. President Donald Trump said on Friday he will not have to think of retaliatory tariffs on countries buying Russian oil right now but may have to "in two or three weeks.""Well, because of what happened today, I think I don't have to think about that," Trump told Fox News after meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska."Now, I may have to think about it in two weeks or three weeks or something, but we don't have to think about that right now. I think, you know, the meeting went very well."Earlier, Trump claimed that the tariffs imposed on India for purchasing oil from Russia have influenced Moscow's decision to seek a meeting with Washington, as the country was losing its 'second largest customer'.In an interview with Fox News on Thursday, Trump said, "I think everything has an impact," and claimed that when he told India that "we're going to charge you, because you're dealing with Russia and oil purchases", it "essentially took them out of buying oil from Russia"."And then they (Russia) called, and they wanted to meet. We're going to see what the meeting means. But certainly, when you lose your second largest customer, and you're probably going to lose your first largest customer, I think that probably has a role."India was the second largest, and getting pretty close to China. China is the largest (purchaser of Russian oil)," the US president on Thursday said it has not halted oil purchases from Russia in response to the US President's tariff threat and continues to buy based solely on economic last week announced an additional 25 per cent tariff on US imports from India -- raising the overall duty to 50 per cent -- as a penalty for the country's continued imports of Russian oil.
