#Firstpost Trump Putin Meet LIVE: Trump and Putin to Meet in Alaska, Once Part of Russia
Alaska was once Russian territory but was sold to the United States in 1867 for $7.2 million, a deal known as the Alaska Purchase. Today, the two countries are separated by the Bering Strait, with Little Diomede Island belonging to the US and Big Diomede Island to Russia just 2.5 miles apart. While Russia has historical ties to Alaska, Putin said in 2014 that the state is “too cold” to reclaim. The incident comes as Trump prepares to meet Putin in Alaska for talks on Ukraine on Friday.
