There was no mention of a possible ceasefire in Russia's war with Ukraine following the historic Alaska summit. U.S. President Donald Trump says progress was made but that there's no deal until there's a deal.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said on Tuesday that it was clear at Friday's U.S.-Russia Alaska summit that U.S. President Donald Trump and his team sincerely wanted to achieve a long-term and sustainable peace in Ukraine.

The Ukrainian president says Monday's talks have been "constructive" as European leaders repeat calls for a ceasefire.

Papers bearing U.S. State Department markings and detailing President Donald Trump’s summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin were discovered in the business center of an Anchorage hotel, raising new questions about the handling of sensitive government information.

An Associated Press photographer who attended the U.S.-Russia summit in Alaska Friday said she was struck by the warm body language between the two leaders.

We can't grow numb to the notion that President Trump consistently picks Russian President Vladimir Putin over America.

In doing so, Trump would abandon Europe, open the door for China to invade Taiwan, and reward Russian President Vladimir Putin for his unprovoked and pitiless invasion.

Mr. Trump wants and, given his desire for a Nobel Peace Prize, needs a peace settlement. Mr. Putin may be less desperate for a settlement but, if reports of domestic economic distress and growing anti-war dissent in his nearly cloistered country are correct, may need one.

In the lead-up to the summit, Donald Trump expressed confidence in his ability to make concrete progress towards securing a ceasefire in Ukraine at the meeting. Mr Putin was welcomed with a red carpet and a lengthy handshake by Mr Trump as he deplaned at the Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson military facility in the Alaskan city of Anchorage.
