Their last official summit occurred in Geneva in 2021, before the conflict in Ukraine intensified.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Putin\u2019s arrival has also sparked debate about international law and jurisdiction. Although the International Criminal Court (ICC) has issued a warrant for Putin, legal experts point out that the United States is not a member of the ICC and is not legally bound to enforce its directives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Security observers also note that Alaska\u2019s geographic closeness to Russia \u2014 combined with its limited exposure to international airspace \u2014 makes it a strategically practical choice for such a sensitive diplomatic meeting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Anchorage, Alaska \u2014 Russian President Vladimir Putin touched down in Alaska today, August 15, for a closely watched meeting with former U.S. President Donald Trump.
