Several hundred people gathered for a pro-Ukraine rally in Anchorage, Alaska, where U.S. President Donald Trump and Russian leader Vladimir Putin are set to meet Friday.
The high-stakes summit — the first in-person meeting between an American president and Putin since the latter launched his full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, is meant to lay the ground for a ceasefire. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy was not invited to the summit, scheduled to kick off around 11 a.m. local time at the Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson.
Protesters started to gather early on Friday morning ahead of Putin's arrival in Anchorage, chanting pro-Kyiv slogans and demanded that Russia return the 20,000 Ukrainian children it has kidnapped from the war zone. The protesters also took umbrage at Trump inviting Putin to a meeting on American soil in Alaska, which used to be Russian territory until it was sold to the United States in 1867.

Dumb people.
Who cares.
If that doesn’t convince him, I don’t know what will.
Several hundred paid douchebags.
Putin never saw them. He landed on a military base. Empty audience performance theater.
As I suspected.
Red-blooded Alaskans have been asleep at the wheel.
Will there even be travel entourages or are the meetings on site?
Let me get this straight, these are pro-war sympathisers? Wheris code pink?
Wow. There must be three dozen people there!
Real Americans.
How do we know that picture is from Alaska? Could be anywhere as far as we know. Got any live footage with license plates that are readable so we can verify?

definitely a rent-a-mob ... looks like the bulk are students on summer hiatus and oldsters from nearby “retirement communities” getting paid to have some cheap thrills ...
Looks like typical Democrats to me. They seem to have lots of free time to do whatever the next Democrat “thing” is.
Paid Rent-A-Mobs.
Get a job losers or move to Ukraine and volunteer your time and blood.
To add further to my post...I did some zooming in on various signs. A number of Trans, anti-capitalist, and anti-Trump signs. The woman in the red hat has an anti-Trump version of a MAGA hat and a sign asking if Alaska is next. How stupid is that?
Bottom line - just another leftist rally. Some even looked like they have been used at other protests.
