Despite the historic summit and high expectations, President Trump and President Putin concluded their Alaska meeting without announcing a deal to end the war in Ukraine, though both leaders expressed optimism about future progress. The meeting, marked by a military flyover and a presidential limousine ride, included three hours of talks, yet yielded no details on a ceasefire or any concrete agreements. While Putin emphasized the need to address the “root causes” of the conflict, suggesting continued demands that Ukraine would likely reject, Trump left without taking questions. This outcome has fueled speculation that the summit served as a stalling tactic, despite Trump’s previous warnings of severe consequences for failure to reach an agreement.
Despite a highly anticipated summit in Alaska, President Trump and Vladimir Putin failed to reach an agreement to end the war in Ukraine. Trump offered a welcoming reception and a mix of incentives and sanctions, but the meeting concluded with no concrete deal. While both leaders expressed optimism about progress, there were still unresolved issues, and the Ukrainian President Zelenskyy was excluded from the discussions. Putin thanked Trump for their “friendly” conversation and suggested future cooperation, but the war continues to rage on with no immediate resolution.
President Trump praised Vladimir Putin for their upcoming summit in Alaska, framing it as a crucial meeting to gauge the potential for ending the conflict. He described the meeting as a “feel-out” session, believing he could quickly determine the feasibility of a deal. Trump planned to consult with Volodymyr Zelensky and other European leaders after the meeting, but defended his decision to meet with Putin alone, questioning Zelensky’s effectiveness over the past three and a half years. The former US president also appeared to reiterate his criticism of Zelensky’s actions, indicating some disagreement.
Next week, over 20 countries will gather in Bogota for an emergency summit, co-hosted by Colombia and South Africa, to address Israel’s violations of international law. The Hague Group, initially comprised of eight nations, aims to coordinate diplomatic and legal actions to counter what they see as a climate of impunity. The summit will focus on devising specific legal, diplomatic, and economic measures to halt Israel’s actions against Palestinians, with a focus on the ongoing conflict in Gaza, which has resulted in significant casualties and displacement. Key figures and participating countries have been named. The Hague Group hopes to strengthen the impact of international law and hold Israel accountable, particularly due to the non-compliance of certain states with existing international legal obligations.
Despite rising US-China tensions stemming from restrictions on Chinese technology investment and the threat of a Trump-led trade war, Xi Jinping affirmed China’s commitment to a stable relationship with the incoming US administration. Xi and Biden held a candid meeting following the APEC summit, where disagreements over addressing the economic impacts of the Ukraine and Middle East conflicts prevented a consensus. APEC leaders did, however, unite in their implicit criticism of potential future trade protectionism. The upcoming G20 summit in Brazil is expected to further address these global economic concerns, with various leaders seeking to mitigate the potential negative impacts of a more isolationist US foreign policy.
At the APEC summit in Lima, South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol urged Chinese President Xi Jinping to aid in de-escalating North Korea’s provocations, its military collaboration with Russia, and its support for the war in Ukraine.

Both leaders affirmed their commitment to strengthening bilateral relations, with Xi highlighting the overall positive momentum in China-South Korea ties. The meeting concluded with an agreement to continue discussions and enhance cooperation.
