In a notable diplomatic move, Russian President Vladimir Putin invited U.S. President Donald Trump to Moscow for the next round of peace talks, following a productive summit in Alaska. While no deal was reached, both leaders praised the discussions and expressed optimism.
At a joint press conference, Trump called the talks “extremely productive,” and Putin described them as “results-oriented.” Ending on a symbolic note, Putin said, “Next time in Moscow,” to which Trump responded playfully, hinting at potential political backlash but not ruling it out.
European reactions were swift. Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban welcomed the summit, saying it made the world “a safer place,” amid hopes for progress on the war in Ukraine.
