Alaska Summit: Trump says meeting with Putin "very productive" (Reuters Image)
US President Donald Trump on Friday (local time) said that his talks with the Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin were “productive", adding that “many points were agreed to" and “very few" are left, apparently hinting at a possible resolution of the Ukraine conflict.
This comes as both leaders held a “mutually respectful" summit in Alaska, where Trump laid out the red carpet for Putin to welcome him to the meeting.
The pair held an over three-hour-long meeting behind closed doors and appeared for a joint press conference, detailing what went through and what may be next.
“We had an extremely productive meeting, and many points were agreed to. There are just a very few that are left. We didn’t get there, but we have a very good chance of getting there," Trump said, referring to the peace deal between the two warring countries.
