Reuters

• US and Russian officials announced Thursday that US President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin will meet in Helsinki, Finland on July 16.
• The summit will take place during Trump's trip to Europe in July, which will include attending the NATO summit and visiting the UK.
• Trump favors using his personal brand of one-on-one diplomacy when meeting with foreign leaders, but so far, the US has come out with few victories while making major concessions.
• Foreign-policy experts anticipate the same outcome, with potentially massive consequences, when Trump meets with Russian President Vladimir Putin next month.
• Russia may even score a major win related to sanctions following the Trump-Putin meeting.
