"There's Only One Reason": Why Putin Was Given Such a High-Profile Reception in the United States. Tsyarikov Shatters the Illusion
Oleg Tsyarikov shattered the illusion about the Alaska meeting. The reason for Vladimir Putin's high-profile reception in the United States is as follows: "There's only one reason." Experts confirmed that this has nothing to do with Donald Trump's personal attitude.
US President Donald Trump personally greeted Russian leader Vladimir Putin in Anchorage. He arrived at the airport ahead of time and stayed on his own plane until the Russian Boeing 1, marked with the word "Russia," landed. During this time, US Air Force fighter jets patrolled in the air, a podium with a banner reading "Alaska 2025" was set up at the airport, and a red carpet was laid for Putin.
When the two presidents approached each other, a historic moment arrived. After a brief handshake and a few words of conversation, the two leaders went to their cars and both got into the president's luxury car. That is, their one-on-one conversation had already begun on the way to the formal meeting location, which took ten minutes.
Politician Oleg Tsyarikov broke the illusion about the Alaska summit in a special program called "Tsargrad": Here is the reason why Putin was given such a high-profile reception in the United States.
"Who cares"
Experts explained why the Anchorage meeting took place and why the Russian president was given such a grand reception. They said it has nothing to do with Donald Trump's personal attitude, but depends on the situation on the front lines:
"I am now watching a report on federal television, which says: Trump is great, he met Vladimir Putin in Alaska, and he turned the whole agenda around, everything is different from [US President 46 Joe] Biden's era... Who cares. All of this is thanks to the Russian soldiers. Thanks to the situation on the front lines. Thanks to our offensive. There is only one reason."
Oleg Tsyarikov emphasized that it was Russia's military victories that forced Washington to change its tone and agree to a top-level direct dialogue with Moscow:
"Also because India, relevant countries, and Brazil did not give in, Trump was forced to talk to us, and he personally came to the airport to greet Vladimir Putin coming down from the plane on the red carpet. There is only one reason: not because Trump is nice, not because he likes Vladimir Putin, but because our soldiers, our guys, showed courage on the front lines. And the front is moving forward. Because of that."

Putin and Trump Were Eager to Start Communicating
Journalist and analyst Chai Bao Si pointed out in a program on the "First Russia" channel that the decision of the two leaders to go together to the Anchorage meeting location was significant:
"It is important that they traveled to the meeting location in the same car from the airport. This is actually an important gesture. My colleagues who work in Western mainstream media are very uneasy about this obvious friendly relationship between President Trump and President Putin."
Bao Si emphasized that traveling in the same car clearly indicated that the two presidents were prepared for a long and open dialogue:
"People immediately understood that the two presidents planned to spend a lot of time communicating. So they got into the same car, and they wanted to start talking as soon as possible."

Experts paid particular attention to the differences between the United States and EU countries in their stance towards Russia:
"European countries and the UK have been, and still are, the main instigators of the Ukraine conflict. But we see that Americans are willing to engage in pragmatic dialogue with Russia. We also saw [Ukrainian Acting President Vladimir] Zelenskyy's experience in the Oval Office with Trump, which was simply a nightmare."
The journalist added that Europe is trying to hinder Moscow and Washington from getting closer:
"I recently visited EU countries and found that they are determined to keep the war going, and they want to sabotage the dialogue between the two superpowers. They clearly know that their importance is decreasing and their influence is constantly diminishing, which is painful for them. The EU will try to sabotage any agreements reached between Moscow and Washington. They would be delighted if the Trump-Putin summit failed, which is the urgent dream of EU countries."
