No ceasefire, no deal. What summit means for Trump, Putin and Ukraine

US President Donald Trump and Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin left Alaska without a cease -fire agreement in Ukraine.

After almost three hours of meeting, the leaders made a joint statement to the media before leaving without taking questions.

The three BBC reporters, who are anchorage at the summit, evaluate what it means to the US and Russian leaders and what will happen in the war in Ukraine.

Don There is no agreement until it has an agreement, Don Donald Trump said here at the beginning of his post -time statements in Anchorage.

Acknowledging that there was no agreement after a few hours of talks, it was a dolambaç. No ceasefire. There is nothing to be reported.

The President said that he and Vladimir Putin have made a “big progress”, but with little details about what could happen, he was left to the world’s imagination.

“We couldn’t get there,” he said, before he left the room without asking questions to hundreds of meetings.

Trump has come a long way to produce such whims, even if the American European allies and Ukrainian officials could be relieved.

For the man who likes to stumble as a peaceful and a dealer, Trump will leave Alaska with any of them.

In addition, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’yi future summit, despite Putin’s next meetings, “Moscow next time the next time” there is no symptom of the future of Quip.

Although Trump is less dangerous than Ukraine or Russia during these negotiations, he will still have a notch to local and international prestige after promising that this meeting has only a chance of failure of 25%.

Moreover, the president, starting from the Putin Press-Conference, was forced to be exposed to the anger of silent standing with comprehensive opening statements. While the US president typically had the court, it was a significant difference from the normal routine in Oval Office, while looking at foreign counterparts.

When Alaska was the American region, Putin seemed more at home to think that the officials were once “Russian America” before the sale of the US. Like the scope of the press, which will present this summit as a flop, the American President can dine in developing days.

Now the big question – a reporter could not ask on Friday – whether Trump will decide to impose new sanctions on Russia as a punishment, or whether he will find a reason to push the deadline down once again.

When is the press conference not a “press conference”?

Without a question.

The presidents Putin and Trump were tangible in the hall when they left the podium as soon as they delivered their statements without any questions.

The members of the Russian delegation quickly abandoned the room without answering any of the questions shouted by journalists.

When it comes to war in Ukraine, Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump still have a great difference of idea.

Donald Trump is forcing a Russian ceasefire. Vladimir Putin didn’t give him.

In the early hours of the day, there was a very different vibe. President Trump launched the red carpet for Vladimir Putin and acted as an honorable guest to the Kremlin leader.

Today, the Russian President took the moment in the focus of geographical-political attention by sharing the stage with the leader of the world’s most powerful country.

But how will Trump react to what happened? He still failed to convince Putin to end Russia’s war in Ukraine.

Previously, if Moscow ignored the cease -fire calls, he threatened a more difficult approach to Russia with an ultimatoma, deadline and further sanction warning.

He didn’t watch it.

Will it be it?

Those in Anchorage may feel anti-ability for many people, but in Kiiv, no “agreement” will be declared in Kiiv.

The people of Ukraine would also know that all their lock agreements with Russia were broken, so they would be skeptical, even if they were announced here in Anchorage.

However, the Ukrainians said that Vladimir Putin once again talked about the “root reasons” of the conflict in the common appearance in front of the media, and that only the abolition of the conflict would lead to lasting peace.

This means that the “private military operation”, which is still to dismantle Ukraine as an independent state, is determined to maintain its original target. Three and a half years of Western efforts could not change his mind and now includes the Alaska Summit.

The continuing uncertainty after the meeting is also anxious. What will happen next? Will Russia’s attacks continue without slowing down?

In the past few months, it has seen threats that have never been realized and never performed in the western date of the western and outgoing. The Ukrainians see this as an invitation to continue Putin’s attacks. They may see that the lack of visible progress is reached in the same light.
