      From Rajan Menon, professor emeritus of International Relations:

      President Donald Trump’s team, which has been scrambling amidst Alaska’s tourist season to find a venue for his meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin, has succeeded. The two leaders will meet at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, just north of Anchorage. The Americans apparently tried to persuade the Russians to allow Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to participate in some fashion, but Putin’s “nyet” proved unyielding.

      Zelenskyy worries that Trump and Putin will do a deal over his head and present Ukraine with a fait accompli. He’s not wrong to be concerned, given Trump’s well-documented affinity for Putin. Trump has insisted that Putin wouldn’t have invaded Ukraine had he been in the White House in 2022. In January, Putin echoed this claim, blaming the war on the 2020 election, which he, like Trump, falsely asserted was “stolen.” Trump also promised, on dozens of occasionsin 2023 and 2024, to end the Ukraine war in 24 hours if re-elected.

      But as Putin’s invasion of Ukraine began, Trump called it “genius.” Once back in office, in February he and Vice President JD Vance publicly humiliated Zelenskyy during a now-infamous White House meeting. In April, Trump even blamed Zelenskyy for provoking Russia’s invasion and also chided him for not accepting Russia’s annexation of Crimea, a move that Trump claimed would have cleared the way for a political brokered by him.

      Looking to pay him? We will, without question. Putin is a former KGB spy. Trump dodged service with fake shin splints. As much as I can’t stand the two, I doubt Putin is leaving empty-handed.

      >Putin is looking to play Trump for a fool

      Well, all I can say is that it won’t take much effort.

      Slightly off topic, who proposed Alaska as the venue? Was it American side or Russian?

      Of course he is.

      This is an absolute gift for Putin.

      It gives him legitimacy, a voice on back on the international stage, and makes him look like he’s the one trying to push for peace. At the very best he could agree to some kind of deal he knows Ukraine will refuse that Trump will then use as an excuse to withdraw all US support for Ukraine.

      This whole meeting is a terrible idea.

      Only up shot for Trump is it’s going to stop the media talking about Epstein for a few days.

      America is a joke now. It’s astonishing to witness how far it’s fallen.

      Yep.
      Let’s watch the clown show again.
      Ground hog day. Every two weeks.

      Lol! These people will never learn their lesson?

      Trump is probably the greatest idiot in history, but he is the P. O. T. U. S.

      EU leaders mocked him and openly supported Biden/Harris… That went well, right?

      He will totally not take revenge on these „journalists“ right?

      I am writing this as an European, although we are considered animals similar to Palestinians… Because the US said so
