This article is about a meeting between Putin and Trump in Alaska. A former CIA analyst named Larry Johnson wrote about it. Before the meeting, people on TV said very bad things about Putin.

They said he was a killer and that Russia was in big trouble. But when Putin spoke at the meeting, he was very calm and confident. He talked about Alaska's history during World War II and said Trump was a good partner for talks.

Putin did not change his ideas about Ukraine and NATO. Trump also spoke well about Putin, which surprised the TV people. Johnson was very angry with the TV coverage because he thought they told lies about Russia.

The meeting was good for Putin because he looked strong, not weak like the TV people said he would.
