How the Trump-Putin summit in Alaska spawned the Kremlin’s myth of the ‘spirit of Anchorage’ — and why it collapsed

Putin’s meeting with Trump in August 2025 gave rise to a new term in the arsenal of Russian diplomacy and propaganda: the “spirit of Anchorage.” The claim was that during the Russian president’s visit to Alaska, Russia and the United States had reached certain agreements on peace in Ukraine — agreements that were directly shaping events on the front and in diplomacy. For a full year, Russian politicians and pro-Kremlin journalists insisted that following the “spirit of Anchorage” was the key to breaking the deadlock in peace talks. After Putin rejected Zelensky’s public peace proposal — and as a fuel crisis triggered by Ukrainian strikes intensified — it became definitively clear that the “spirit of Anchorage” had evaporated. Trump acknowledged as much, and within days so did Putin. Writing exclusively for Meduza, political scientist and researcher at the Latvian Institute of International Affairs Sergejs Potapkins explains how the “spirit of Anchorage” came into being — and why it lasted as long as it did.

Putin’s ‘Explosive’ New Humiliation Is Leaked

Anastasia Barashkova/Pool via ReutersVladimir Putin could face a humiliating new setback as his war risks creating a banking crisis in Russia, according to a new report. The bloodthirsty Kremlin dictator launched his full-scale invasion of Ukraine in early 2022. The “special military operation,” as he called it, has become a protracted war with stubborn Ukraine not bowing to Russia’s imperial ambitions. This protraction, of course, costs money—meaning Putin has created a bubble that could soon burst, a European state intelligence report seen ​by Reuters has warned. Read more at The Daily Beast.
