U.S. President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin concluded three-on-three talks in Anchorage, the U.S. state of Alaska, on Friday.
The two presidents held a joint press conference after concluding their talks at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson in Anchorage.
Trump said they agreed on "many points", adding that the two sides made some headway, though no deal was reached.
Putin said he agreed that the security of Ukraine should be ensured, and an agreement he reached with Trump would pave the way toward peace in Ukraine.
Standing side by side on stage for just over 10 minutes, both leaders indicated that progress had been made during their face-to-face talks, but no concrete deal was produced.
Putin said the negotiations took place in a "constructive atmosphere of mutual respect" and that a personal meeting between the heads of state had been "long overdue".
"Everything that's happening is a tragedy for us and a terrible wound," and Russia is sincerely interested in ending it, said Putin.
He stressed that efforts must address the "primary causes" of the conflict and warned Ukraine and European countries not to "throw a wrench in the works."
Trump described the talks as "extremely productive" and said "great progress" had been made.
Trump said he will call Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and European leaders soon.
The meeting lasted about three hours. It was the first face-to-face meeting between the presidents of the two countries since 2021.
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Trump's special envoy Steve Witkoff, as well as Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and Russian presidential aide Yuri Ushakov, joined the summit for three-on-three discussions.
