where are trump and putin meeting

Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin met on August 15, 2025, at Joint Base Elmendorf–Richardson in Anchorage, Alaska. The summit was held at this U.S. military installation and marked their first meeting since Trump was reelected in 2024. The main topic of discussion was the ongoing Russo-Ukrainian War. The meeting had significant historical and geopolitical symbolism, taking place on a site in Alaska, a state that was formerly part of Russia. The summit ended without a formal agreement but was a notable event given it was Putin's first visit to the U.S. since 2015 and the first U.S.-hosted meeting between the presidents of Russia and the U.S. since 2007.
