U.S. and Russian presidents Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin will hold their first major summit in Helsinki, Finland on July 16. The summit comes as relations between Moscow and Washington have sunk to levels not seen since the Cold War, and immediately follows a tense meeting of NATO leaders in Brussels.
RFE/RL will be closely tracking developments in Helsinki, as well as reaction in Moscow and throughout the region, including Ukraine. Check our English website regularly for the latest reporting and analysis.
