President Donald Trump on Wednesday threatened "severe consequences" against Russia if Vladimir Putin did not agree to stop the war.

Ukraine war is scheduled to take place Friday at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson in Anchorage, The Associated Press reported.

Sentiment toward Russia in Alaska has cooled since Putin invaded Ukraine in 2022. The Anchorage Assembly voted unanimously to suspend its three-decade-long sister city relationship with Magadan, Russia, and the Juneau Assembly sent its sister city of Vladivostok a letter expressing concern.
