The press account of the governor of California Gavin Newsom criticized the use of the president of the American soldiers, President Donald Trump to deploy and clean a red carpet for Trump and the Russian president Vladimir Putin.

“Trump had our brave American soldiers on his knees to spread the red carpet for his best friend Vlad!” The Newsom press office published in X, mocking Trump’s chaotic form to write messages on social networks.

An image of American knee soldiers was attached to the publication by launching the red carpet for the arrival of Putin to Anchorage, Alaska, on Friday for a summit with Trump about the war that the Russian president began with Ukraine.

“Disgustingly,” added the publication.

The red carpet is cleaned before President Donald Trump passes from Air Force One, Friday, August 15, 2025, at the Joint base elmendorf-richardson, Alaska, before meeting with the president of Russia, Vladimir Putin.

The meeting between the two world leaders achieved little for Trump, who, despite spending the day, praising the dictator and sharing a private trip with him in Trump’s presidential limousine, failed to reach an agreement with Putin to end the war in Ukraine.

The spokeswoman of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, acknowledged on the telegram the importance of displaying the red carpet for the accused war criminal.

“For three years, they have been informing that Russia is isolated, and today they saw the red carpet to greet the Russian president in the United States,” he wrote.
