💨 Abstract

Russian President Vladimir Putin praised U.S. efforts under Trump to cease the Ukraine war and hinted at potential nuclear arms control agreements during an upcoming summit in Alaska. Putin claimed that the U.S. administration is making genuine efforts to resolve the crisis and indicated that creating long-term peace could involve new agreements on strategic offensive weapons. The current START treaty, which limits U.S. and Russian nuclear arsenals, expires in February 2026.
