Can the U.S. help bring an end to Russia’s war in Ukraine? President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin met in Anchorage, Alaska on Friday to discuss a ceasefire in Ukraine. Trump has floated ideas including so-called “land swaps” and potential U.S. security guarantees for Ukraine, but with Ukraine excluded from the talks and Russia continuing to escalate its attacks, movement toward peace remains uncertain. We get analysis from former U.S. Ambassador to Russia Michael McFaul and other experts.

Tamara Keith, NPR White House correspondent; co-host of the NPR Politics podcast
