Make Alaska Russian Again?!
VIDEO PODCAST 🎧 Dissecting the many layers of significance to today's Trump-Putin summit in Anchorage

The Trump-Putin summit in Alaska is set to be a geopolitical circus. In this episode of the Energy Flux: On Air podcast, I unpack some of the less-discussed issues that will colour today’s meeting.
I cover:
- Why some in Moscow might be eyeing Alaska’s mineral wealth
- How a land-swap-for-ceasefire could reshape Ukraine’s future
- The sanctions relief carrot Trump might dangle — and why I’m sceptical
- How the Armenia-Azerbaijan peace deal frames today’s summit
- What the Zangezur Corridor gambit tells us about real estate diplomacy
- What all this could mean for LNG markets already swimming in supply
There’s also a quick update at the end on what I’ve been building here at Energy Flux: new data tools, a members-only discussion forum, and an AI-powered daily briefing for premium subscribers.
