Putin avoids answering ceasefire question at Alaska summit arrival
Ahead of a meeting with Russian President Putin, US President Donald Trump has stated his primary goal is to achieve a rapid ceasefire in Ukraine. "I want to see a ceasefire rapidly. I don't know if it's going to be today, but I'm not going to be happy if it's not today," Trump said, emphasizing, "I'm in this to stop the killing." The statement comes as Russia continues its military operations, controlling nearly 20% of Ukraine's territory, specifically the strategic, Russian-speaking Donbas region. Russia views control over Donbas as critical for its hold on Crimea. The discussion occurs on August 15th, noted as the 80th anniversary of the end of the Second World War. Russia is fighting with support from nations like China and North Korea against Ukraine, which is backed by NATO's intelligence and military resources.
