CNN: Putin scored two “major wins” after meeting with Trump in Alaska

Western media continue to discuss "Putin’s success" following the Alaska meeting.

For example, according to CNN, Putin achieved two "significant victories."

The first is the impressive display of the red carpet in the USA and the ride in Trump’s armored limousine, Cadillac One. These events, according to the publication, symbolize an "exceptional restoration of reputation" for Putin.

The second is that Putin gained extra time to advance his troops on the front line. CNN notes that time plays a key role as Russia’s summer offensive "nears the transformation of gradual successes into strategic achievements."
