Trump to meet with Putin for talks on ending Ukraine war

Season 2025 Episode 220 | 6m 38s

President Trump said he will meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin next Friday in Alaska. Friday was Trump's initial deadline for Russia to agree to a peace deal with Ukraine or face new sanctions, including tariffs on nations that buy Russian oil. But it's still unclear how or whether Trump intends to follow through on his threat. Geoff Bennett discussed more with Thomas Graham.
