This market resolves to YES if U.S. President Donald Trump, Russian President Vladimir Putin, and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy hold a trilateral in-person meeting before October 1, 2025. The meeting must include all three leaders physically present in the same location and must be officially acknowledged by all three governments.
Following the Trump-Putin summit in Alaska on August 15, 2025, Trump indicated he would propose a three-way meeting with Putin and Zelenskyy "almost immediately" if the Alaska summit went well. In a Fox News interview after the summit, Trump said, "They're going to set up a meeting now between President Zelensky and President Putin and myself, I guess."

Context: Ukraine has been pushing for direct talks between Zelenskyy and Putin, with Trump potentially serving as a mediator. In July 2025, Ukraine proposed a meeting between Zelenskyy, Putin, Trump, and Turkish President Erdogan. The Russian delegation responded that Russia and Ukraine need to make substantial progress toward an agreement before Putin and Zelenskyy can meet.
