President Donald Trump supports Russian leader Vladimir Putin's proposal for Moscow to take full control of the Donbas and freeze the front lines elsewhere for a deal with Ukraine.

The US president said a peace agreement would be better than a "mere" ceasefire, hours after summit with Putin that produced little.

President Trump appeared to wake up on the wrong side of the bed Sunday as he trashed the "FAKE NEWS" media for reporting on Friday's Alaska summit.

American officials quickly discovered a major snag in planning for the summit: summertime is peak tourist season in Alaska, and options both available and equipped to host the two world leaders were severely limited.
