Kyiv and its European allies have urged Trump not to agree to any concessions of Ukrainian land to Russia, saying such decisions are Ukraine's alone to make, and warned against what they said is rewarding Moscow's illegal aggression.

The high-stakes meeting will take place at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson in Anchorage, where Trump is expected to push forward discussions on resolving the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict.

For most of his quarter-century rule, President Vladimir Putin visited places like Paris, London, Vienna and New York.
