Recent phone diplomacy between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin, including an hour-long call days before the June 2026 G7 summit, has reinforced trader emphasis on indirect engagement over an in-person bilateral. European leaders at the G7 urged Trump to host Ukraine-related talks, yet Putin has not committed to attendance or a U.S. venue, while focusing instead on hosting an ASEAN summit in Kazan. Deepening Russia-China energy and strategic ties, highlighted by Putin’s May 2026 Beijing visit with Xi Jinping, support China as the next-most-favored location. Broader uncertainties around Ukraine negotiations, sanctions dynamics, and competing regional summits keep the probability of no meeting by year-end highest, with other sites remaining low-odds options absent new diplomatic breakthroughs.
