Washington: America’s President Donald Trump is facing the displeasure of many countries. Heads of State of many countries have been seen speaking nonsense in front of the world but it seems that Russian President Vladimir Putin has a special place in their heart. He has proved this by decorating a picture in the White House. Trump has hung his photo with Putin at a special place, where only Trump’s granddaughter’s photo was, now Putin’s photo has been hung above that too.
Trump put Putin’s photo in a special place
PBS reporter Landers said the photo was placed in the recently renovated Palm Room. This is a waiting area connecting the West Wing to the Executive Residence. Apart from the pictures of the US President and Putin, a family photo of Trump and his granddaughter has also been put here. Just above this family photo is the photo of Putin and Trump.
Where was this photo taken
In this picture, Trump and Putin are seen walking together at their summit in Anchorage, Alaska last year. Last year in August 2025, Trump and Putin had a meeting in Alaska. The American President had shown the photo of this meeting in a press conference in August itself and he had said that this photo was sent to him by Russian President Putin.

Trump chose a special place in the White House for this picture
The Palm Room is not part of the public tour, but serves as the main lobby for officials and journalists visiting the West Wing. It was converted from a greenhouse-style lounge to a formal reception area in September 2025.

What is the update on Russia-Ukraine?
A Trump official said that it is common to show and rotate photographs of the President’s events in the White House. The US President is continuously trying to stop the war between Russia and Ukraine. Meanwhile, Trump criticized Putin for stalled peace efforts in the Ukraine dispute. However, the US President has also appreciated their personal rapport.
The first face-to-face meeting between Trump and Putin took place in Alaska in August 2025 after the Ukraine conflict escalated in 2022. However, no significant benefit was seen from this meeting, because the war between Russia and Ukraine is still going on.
