During a much-anticipated meeting on August 15 in Anchorage, Alaska, Presidents Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin attempted to negotiate peace amid the ongoing conflict with Ukraine. The two leaders spoke for nearly three hours but failed to reach a formal agreement. However, Trump stated that progress was made and expressed optimism about future talks, noting that “only a few” points remained unresolved.
After arriving at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, the presidents walked side by side down a red carpet, where they were greeted by an impressive military display. As they made their way across the runway, four F-35 fighter jets and a B-2 Spirit bomber flew overhead — a strong symbol of American military power. The B-2, capable of carrying nuclear weapons, is seen as a clear demonstration of U.S. strength.
As the aircraft roared above, Russian President Putin looked toward the sky, appearing alert. Body language expert and celebrity psychic Inbaal Honigman analyzed the moment, noting Putin’s immediate reaction to the sound. She observed his hand stiffening over his pocket — a gesture known as the “holster hand,” referencing his KGB background and the readiness to act quickly under pressure.
Honigman explained that Putin’s trademark “Gunslinger Gait” — walking with one hand swinging and the other still — reflects his past training. His reaction to the flyover revealed that his instincts remain sharp, even after years in diplomacy. He appeared focused and prepared, not startled.
As the flyover continued, both leaders looked up at the aircraft. Trump clasped his hands in pride, while Putin followed the display with interest and even visible delight. The moment revealed mutual respect and a shared appreciation for the spectacle.
In a gesture of friendship, Trump reached out and touched Putin’s arm. Putin responded with a respectful nod, acknowledging both the gesture and the show of strength.
