Why meet in Alaska?
Jeff Tiedrich made the point today that the ICC has an arrest warrant out for Putin so, the meeting could be held only in Russia or the USA.
And no BTW, it's not about Alaska being given back to Russia........

Putin has once again proven that Trump is his b*tch and will do anything to serve him. Why Alaska?
- First, Putin is terrified of his plane being shot down. If Putin flew to the Middle East then Ukrainian intelligence would get potentially two shots at him flying over other countries. Going to Alaska means he can travel safely over the North Pole.
- Second, Putin wants to visit US soil and spit in the face of international law and the rules based order. Putin has killed millions of people and is the #1 terrorist in the world. Trump is about to give him the red carpet treatment on US soil. American democracy has fallen and Putin wants to prove it to everyone.
- Third, Alaska used to be Russian territory. This will be a coup for Russian nationalists at home who already want to see Alaska returned to Putin's new Russian Empire. Trump is going to kiss Putin's feet welcoming the Tsar back to his old imperial territory.
Trump just wants the attention. Putin is actually trying to build a new economic and political world order that can finally destroy The United States for good.
