So, the Famous Alaska Summit is now history. What will history record: not much, really. POTUS and the dictator were photographed holding hands(shaking hands?). No decisions were handed down regarding: 1) cease fire in Ukraine, 2) definition of peace requirements, 3) conditions for cessation of hostilities, 4) international law violation recognition.
Pres. Zelensky of Ukraine was not a party to these foto ops put on by the Entertainer and the Dictator. Putie wanted to resurface outside the largest country in the world to appear to his supporters that he was doing something that might reduce the million + casualties suffered by the Rus down south. It's already become an issue among dissidents(even those in gulag).
Trumpie likes the idea of bringing the Dictator out of the Kremlin onto American soil. Hints of possible agreements were leaked by White House toadies to media outlets. Some journalists speculated that trumpie would sell Alaska back to Russia is he gave up designs on eastern Ukraine. It was also mentioned that trumpie would sell some mineral rights to the Kremlin(maybe the entire North Slope). Maybe some timber; maybe some metal ores. Maybe a grizzly bear or two. Maybe some salmon; or a slice of the Arctic maritime passage.
But, as has been reported, both parties left Alaska as they came in: empty handed, no deals announced, no deals completed. Only a few pleasantries passed their lips.
Oh, well. The world waits for Mad Vlad to pass away.
