A proposed summit between United States President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin is creating a lot of talk, especially about where the meeting will happen and who will not be included. The meeting, which is meant to discuss the war in Ukraine, is planned to take place in Alaska – a choice that has been praised by political and media figures in Moscow. However, the fact that Ukrainian or European leaders will not be part of the talks has caused worry in Kyiv and throughout Europe.
For Ukraine, being left out of the summit confirms its biggest fears, according to NBC. The Ukrainian president has not been invited to talks about the war happening in his own country. Volodymyr Zelenskyy has said that any decisions made without Ukraine’s involvement were “decisions against peace,” and “they will not achieve anything.”
