US President Donald Trump said that he and Russian President Vladimir Putin made "very productive" progress but reached no final agreement after a nearly three-hour summit in Anchorage, Alaska, focused on the war in Ukraine. "There were many, many points that we agreed on," Trump said at a joint press conference with Putin. "I would say a couple of big ones that we haven’t quite got there, but we've made some headway. So there's no deal until there's a deal." "And there are just a very few that are left. Some are not that significant. One is probably the most significant, but we have a very good chance of getting there. We didn’t get there." he added.
