The meeting between Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump on August 15, will be the first in-person summit between an American and Russian president since former US President Joe Biden met with Putin in June 2021. This meeting reflects Trump's confidence in his ability to persuade Putin in a face-to-face encounter. For Putin, the meeting itself is a victory after he spent the past several months largely isolated from the international community. Despite previous refusals by Russian officials to negotiate over territory in the Ukraine war, Putin during a meeting at the Kremlin last week, left Trump’s special envoy, Steve Witkoff, with the impression that Russia was now willing to engage in some land deal-making. By speaking a language of real estate that Trump understands, Putin secured something he had been seeking ever since January: a one-on-one meeting with Trump without Zelensky present, to make his case and cut a deal. n18oc_world n18oc_crux
