Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin did not meet by the June 30 deadline, resolving the prediction market to 'No meeting by June 30.' While the market's favored outcome occurred, reports suggest ongoing diplomatic efforts between the United States and Russia regarding Ukraine, with talks set to continue in Qatar. The Kremlin had previously framed a summit in Anchorage as a turning point for the war in Ukraine, but no deal was reached, leading to a period of continued dialogue.
Background
Over the period the market tracked potential meetings, odds remained largely stable, indicating consistent expectations about the likelihood of an encounter. Previous reporting suggested potential meetings, including one between Putin and Chinese leader Xi Jinping following Trump's visit to Beijing, and another where Putin agreed on next steps with U.S. envoys. However, a White House official had also stated that Trump would not meet with Putin on Ukraine, signaling a complex and evolving diplomatic landscape.
