Trump's upcoming peace summit with Putin in Alaska raises concerns about the meeting's optics amid the ongoing war in Ukraine, where Putin is viewed as a war criminal. The summit aims to end the war, yet risks leaving Trump humiliated and emboldening Putin, while undermining America’s global standing. Trump's previously uncritical stance on Putin has shifted to open criticism, and while he now supports Ukraine's defense, any agreement lacking a Russian retreat risks breaking his pledge. With Ukraine's sovereignty at stake, Zelensky's absence signifies a refusal to negotiate under these conditions.
Trump's peace summit with Putin in Alaska is characterized by high-risk gambits that may humiliate Trump and embolden Putin while diminishing America's global standing.
The war in Ukraine is a geopolitical trench fight with profound moral stakes, where compromise favors one side keeping stolen territory, making peace elusive.
