“The highly anticipated meeting between myself, as President of the United States of America, and President Vladimir Putin, of Russia, will take place next Friday, August 15, 2025, in the Great State of Alaska,” Trump wrote in the post. Trump’s post did not specify where in Alaska the meeting would take place and said more details would come soon.

President Donald Trump said Friday that he will meet “very shortly” with Russian President Vladimir Putin to discuss ending the war in Ukraine, a major potential milestone after expressing weeks of frustration that more was not being done to quell the fighting.
