ANCHORAGE, United States, Aug. 15 (Xinhua) -- U.S. President Donald Trump said Friday he had a "very productive meeting" with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Anchorage, the U.S. state of Alaska.

The two presidents held a joint press conference after concluding their talks at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson in the city of Anchorage.

Trump said at the press conference that there were many points agreed on, adding that the two sides made some headway, but there was no deal.

Putin said he agrees that the security of Ukraine should be ensured. He said the agreement he reached with Trump will bring closer that goal and pave the path toward peace in Ukraine. Enditem
