FROM RUSSIA, WITH LOVE: Putin Praises 'Sincere' Trump, Hints at New Nuclear Arms Deal Ahead of Alaska Summit: Report

posted by Hannity Staff - 8.14.25

Russian President Vladimir Putin praised the Trump administration’s “energetic” and “sincere” push to end the war in Ukraine — and hinted the U.S. and Russia could strike a nuclear arms control deal at their summit in Alaska on Friday.

Speaking to senior officials Thursday, Putin said upcoming talks in Anchorage could “create long-term conditions for peace between our countries, as well as in Europe, and in the world as a whole.”

“The current American administration… is making, in my opinion, quite energetic and sincere efforts to stop the hostilities, stop the crisis and reach agreements that are of interest to all parties involved in this conflict,” he said, according to CNN.

A peace deal is possible if the US and Russia can “reach agreements in the area of control over strategic offensive weapons,” Putin said, referring to nuclear arms.

The U.S. and Russia signed the New START treaty in 2011, capping strategic nuclear weapons deployments. It is set to expire on Feb. 5, 2026.
The pact has been strained by Russia’s war in Ukraine and has lingered on life support since February, when Putin declared Moscow would no longer comply with its terms.

The treaty caps each side at 1,550 deployed nuclear warheads and 700 deployed missiles and bombers, and calls for mutual site inspections — paused during COVID-19 in 2020 and never resumed.

Putin, a former KGB agent and master manipulator, has repeatedly shown he cannot be trusted.

Trump has grown increasingly frustrated, accusing the Russian leader of stringing him along and railing against his “bulls–t.”
