Alaska’s summit will be held at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson

(MENAFN) Reports indicate that the upcoming summit between US President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin will take place at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson in Alaska, according to a White House official.

The two leaders are set to meet on Friday to discuss ending the more than three-year war in Ukraine, marking their first standalone summit since Helsinki in 2018.

Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, near Alaska’s capital Anchorage, combines the Elmendorf Air Force Base and Fort Richardson, which were merged in 2010. The base serves as headquarters for entities including Alaska Command, which oversees US forces in the state, and the Alaskan NORAD Region, responsible for aerospace control and warning.

The US military routinely intercepts Russian aircraft approaching Alaskan airspace, using visual or electronic contact to monitor their activity.

Russia launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, and Trump has spent the early months of his second term seeking a peace agreement, though no breakthrough has yet been achieved.
