 <\/p>\n

Russian President Vladimir Putin seemingly caught Donald Trump off guard as he made a rare comment in English following the pair\u2019s highly anticipated meeting in Alaska on Friday (August 15).<\/p>\n

\n

Both presidents arrived in Anchorage on Friday to begin a lengthy meeting about a peace deal amidst the conflict between Russia and Ukraine.<\/p>\n

Following more than three hours of conversations, both Putin and Trump appeared before the press for a 12-minute conference.<\/p>\n

However, there was no ceasefire or peace deal to come from the meeting, with Trump explaining: \u201cWe didn\u2019t get there, but we have a very good chance of getting there.\u201d<\/p>\n

Trump added: \u201cI\u2019m going to start making a few phone calls and tell them what happened. But we had an extremely productive meeting, and many points were agreed to, and there are just a very few that are left.<\/p>\n

\u201cSome are not that significant. One is probably the most significant.\u201d<\/p>\n

Towards the end of the press conference, Putin surprised Trump with one comment in particular, which he said in English.<\/p>\n

\u201cNext time in Moscow,\u201d he said to Trump.<\/p>\n

The president seemed rather taken aback at the invite, telling Putin: \u201cThat\u2019s an interesting one, I\u2019ll get a little heat on that on<\/p>\n

\u201cBut I could see it possibly happening.\u201d<\/p>\n

No US president has visited Russia since Barack Obama attended the G20 Summit back in 2013.<\/p>\n

Prior to the meeting, Trump was asked whether he believed he could broker peace between the two countries \u2013 something he conceded that he wasn\u2019t sure whether he could do.<\/p>\n

Trump said: \u201cI\u2019ll tell you what. I\u2019ve had that conversation with him. I\u2019ve had a lot of good conversations with him then I go home and I see that a rocket hit a nursing home or a rocket hit an apartment building, and people are laying dead in the streets.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo, I guess the answer to that is no, because I\u2019ve had this conversation. I want to end the war. It\u2019s Biden\u2019s war, but I want to end it.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ll be very proud to end this war, along with the five other wars I ended. But, I guess the answer to that is probably no.\u201d<\/p>\n

Speaking to reporters on board Air Force One ahead of the meeting, he was asked what the consequences would be for Russia if Putin failed to show a willingness to talk about ending the war in Ukraine.<\/p>\n

\u201cEconomically severe. It will be very severe,\u201d he said. \u201cI\u2019m not doing this for my health, okay, I don\u2019t need it. I\u2019d like to focus on our country, but I\u2019m doing this to save a lot of lives.<\/p>\n

\u201cYeah, very severe.\u201d<\/p>\n
