24 hoursTrump beat the shit out of Putin. See easy to type.
- A diplomatic win for Putin: After years of being largely isolated by Western nations since the 2022 invasion of Ukraine, Putin received the red carpet treatment on US soil. The summit presented an image of a major world power and a leader on equal footing with the US president.
- No concessions from Putin: The Russian leader left the summit without making any major concessions regarding the war in Ukraine. He continued to insist that the "root causes" of the conflict must be eliminated for peace to be achieved, a position that would effectively require Ukraine's capitulation.
- Failure to achieve a ceasefire: Trump had publicly pushed for a ceasefire, but no such agreement was reached. This outcome left Putin free to continue his military advances in Ukraine, with Russian forces launching new attacks soon after the meeting.
- Trump walked away with little: Despite Trump calling the meeting "very successful" and claiming "great progress" was made, he failed to deliver on his primary goal of securing a ceasefire. He was left to express frustration with Russia's continued aggression after the summit.
- Propaganda coup for Russia: Russian state media was euphoric over the outcome, with Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova noting, "For years they have been talking about the isolation of Russia, and today they saw the red carpet that greeted the Russian president".
