The summit in Alaska – for Russian President Vladimir Putin it was the perfect staging. So far, little is known about concrete results, but he was able to score with the pictures all along the line. “There is no deal until there is a deal,” said US President Donald Trump in his statement at a press conference that was not a press conference in the actual sense. The host gave his guest the first word, unusual for state visits. And Putin was able to explain well -known positions in a long speech. You have to remove the “causes of the conflict”. Still questions? No ones were allowed at the press conference.
