Is Ukraine Being Underestimated? Putin Leaves Several Questions Unanswered

Following his arrival in Alaska to hold bilateral talks with U.S.
President Donald Trump, Russian leader Vladimir Putin faced a series of pointed questions from journalists.
Key among them were: ‘When will you stop killing civilians?’ and ‘Have you underestimated Ukraine?’ Crucially, Putin did not respond to any of these questions, raising further doubts about his strategies and intentions in the ongoing conflict.
As the summit unfolds, the international community closely monitors developments, especially given the unresolved issues surrounding Ukraine.
Meanwhile, analysts warn that if negotiations with Putin fail, the U.S.
may impose sanctions on major Russian oil companies, potentially triggering global repercussions.
The meeting in Anchorage, held at Elmendorf-Richardson Base—the largest military facility in Alaska—is currently being covered extensively by the media, with live online broadcasts allowing viewers to follow every step of the summit in real time.
