Putin Lays Flowers At Alaska-Siberia Highway Memorial On Way To Meet Trump

An informative new Security Council (SC) report circulating in the Kremlin today first notes President Putin stopped in Magadan on his way to meet President Donald Trump so he could lay flowers at the Alaska-Siberia Highway memorial, that perpetuates the history of cooperation between Russia and the United States during World War II.
Prior to meeting with President Putin, this report notes, President Trump declared about the Ukraine crisis: “I think that we have a situation that should never have started, it should never have started…It didn’t start under me, and for four years it wasn’t even discussed…Everything that we did was wrong…Everything that was done was wrong…Everybody’s to blame…Putin’s to blame…They’re all to blame” and assessed: “This meeting sets up the second meeting, but there is a 25% chance that this meeting will not be a successful meeting”.
Top Kremlin aide Kirill Dmitriev, this report continues, become the first Russian official to arrive for the historic Alaska Summit, and whose arrival was preceded by the United States Treasury document “Authorizing Transactions Related to Meetings Between the Government of the United States of America and the Government of the Russian Federation in Alaska”, wherein it decreed: “To the extent authorization is required and except as provided in paragraph (b) of this general license, all transactions prohibited by the Russian Harmful Foreign Activities Sanctions Regulations, 31 CFR part 587 (RuHSR), or the Ukraine-/Russia-Related Sanctions Regulations, 31 CFR part 589 (URSR), that are ordinarily incident and necessary to the attendance at or support of meetings in the State of Alaska between the Government of the United States of America and the Government of the Russian Federation are authorized through 12:01 a.m. eastern daylight time, August 20, 2025”.
After President Trump arrives for the historic Alaska Summit, this report details, NBC News revealed that he intends to personally greet President Putin with high honors and a red carpet—a greeting between these nuclear superpower leaders joined by the United States Defense Intelligence Agency announcing: “A surge in Russian use of ballistic missiles with enhanced maneuvering capabilities has cut into the effectiveness of Ukraine’s Patriot surface-to-air missile systems”—and also joined with the news: “As U.S. President Donald Trump and his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin prepare for talks on ending the war in Ukraine, Ukrainian soldiers remain skeptical the meeting will yield any productive outcome, noting that Russian forces have ramped up their offensive on the ground”.
Unexpectedly joining the historic Alaska Summit, this report concludes, are the two American strategic nuclear war B2 stealth bombers, DAGGR21 and DAGGR11, that just arrived at Elmendorf Air Force Base in Anchorage-Alaska—and is an American display of power joined by legendary CIA officer Ray McGovern, the daily briefer to multiple American presidents during the Cold War, assessing: “How are the Russians approaching Friday’s summit with President Donald Trump?…The short answer?…With confidence, curiosity, some nervousness and a modicum of hope – despite the mercurial behavior of President Donald Trump…The all-important backdrop, lost on many observers, is that Moscow’s fundamental, overriding aim is to improve relations with the United States…The Russians are also painfully aware of the formidable obstacles in his path toward rapprochement…If further fog were needed, State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce told the media yesterday that the Friday summit is not a negotiation”.
