A win for Putin, a shift for Trump: BBC correspondents on the Alaska summit
In the hours after Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin failed to agree a deal on bringing an end to the Ukraine war, BBC correspondents have been dissecting the leaders' summit in Alaska.
Here's a reminder of the latest BBC analysis and reporting:
Winners and losers
The Russian president got a red carpet welcome and presidential applause. Trump, in return, "got nothing to present as a tangible achievement" - amounting to a "clear win for Putin", writes Tom Bateman from Alaska.
Does a win for Putin mean a loss for Ukraine and its European allies? Our Ukraine correspondent James Waterhouse says, despite lobbying Trump ahead of the summit, the announcement that he'll bypass an initial ceasefire "is a a blow to the bloc and Kyiv, because it was one of their main requests".
A shift for Trump
World news correspondent Joe Inwood says Trump's shift toward a peace deal as the "best way" to bring about an end to the Ukraine war, rather than a ceasefire, is a significant move.
In Kyiv
Nearly 5,000 miles away from Anchorage, our correspondent in Kyiv Joel Gunter speaks to residents who say they are "crushed" by what they saw last night.
By giving Putin a red carpet welcome "the rational world behaved irrationally", one woman tells him. But, there is relief that no conditions were put on Ukraine.
