U.S. President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin are set to meet in Anchorage, Alaska, on Aug. 15, in an effort to bring the Russia–Ukraine conflict to a close.

The summit will be the first face-to-face meeting between the two leaders since the start of Trump’s second term and the first time that the presidents of the two countries have met since Russian troops entered Ukraine in February of 2022, setting off the current phase of the conflict.
