Details: A White House representative told NBC News that at today’s meeting with Putin and his advisers, Trump will be accompanied by Secretary of State Marco Rubio and special envoy Steve Witkoff.

The official stated that this will replace what was initially described as a bilateral meeting between Trump and Putin. Translators are also expected to attend.

The bilateral working lunch will be attended by Rubio, Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, and Witkoff.

Trump’s special envoy for Ukraine, Keith Kellogg, is not part of the delegation.

Background:

Putin’s plane has landed at a military base in Anchorage, Alaska. US media report that Trump has also already arrived at the meeting venue.On board the presidential aircraft, he spoke to the media and said in particular that he would not discuss territorial issues "on behalf of Ukraine" and that he allows for the possibility of offering certain guarantees to Ukraine together with Europe, but not within NATO.During the flight, Trump also held his first conversation with self-proclaimed Belarusian president Alexander Lukashenko.
