Alastair Crooke is a former UK diplomat and founder and director of the Beirut-based Conflicts Forum.
Alastair Crooke commented on US President Donald Trump reasons for the Alaska Summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin in 2025 and Trump's failure to end the NATO war in Ukraine as he pledged on the 2024 presidential election campaign trail:
| “ | This is a struggle in the Republican party for control of the Republican party and to wean away the MAGA support from Trump, and to return the Republican party to being a uniparty as it was, you know, the country club elite running the Republican party, not the Deplorables in the Rust Belt of America. So yes, how much room does he have then to negotiate? How much latitude is there? That was what they were hoping to find out at this meeting.[1] | ” |
