French media remained intensely focused on the Trump-Poutine summit in Alaska throughout the day. Morning reports highlighted Donald Trump's belief that both leaders were ready for peace, necessitating a trilateral meeting with Zelensky. As the summit progressed, discussions centered on Ukraine's future, with Germany urging a ceasefire amid Ukrainian anxieties about an imposed peace. In the afternoon, Trump stated he was not negotiating for Ukraine, although Zelensky expressed hope for genuine peace. The Kremlin anticipated lengthy talks, while Washington's quiet easing of Russia sanctions was noted. The summit commenced with handshakes, as Trump pushed for a rapid ceasefire. The meeting concluded without an immediate ceasefire agreement on Ukraine, though both leaders characterized their discussions as "constructive" and "productive." Trump was expected to debrief Zelensky afterward. Domestically, the severe heatwave persisted, and international talks on plastic pollution again failed to yield a binding agreement. Significant attention was also given to an antisemitic act involving an olive tree honoring Ilan Halimi.
