Activity ranges from real estate agents to coffee shops. Beau Disbro, a local Anchorage real estate agent, was incredulous when he received calls from both the Secret Service and the Russian consulate. Most of his rental properties were already booked, but he managed to arrange accommodation for some of the personnel. Local hotels and rental cars are fully booked. Agents in plain clothes are deployed everywhere, from coffee shops to parking lots.
A large number of security personnel and resources have been sent to Alaska from across the country for this summit. SUVs and other vehicles have been flown in from the lower 48 states. Trump and Putin's convoys are being operated separately and with complete security.
Equality is maintained in every aspect of protocol—from language interpreters to waiting rooms. The room prepared for Trump is identical to the one prepared for Putin. If 10 US agents are stationed outside a meeting room, an equal number of Russian agents will also be present.
Alaska has become the center of international strategy. Trump has described this meeting as an attempt to end the war in Ukraine. He has indicated that this discussion may also involve an agreement on regional boundaries. On the other hand, Putin has praised Trump's peace initiative and spoken of increasing cooperation on arms control.
While the Alaskan government is grappling with challenges such as hotels and transportation, security agencies are working to make this historic meeting a success. This summit will not only determine the direction of US-Russia relations but will also have a profound impact on global politics. Along with cooperation, a promise of a new arms control treaty has also been made.
