Overview

• The agency has flown in hundreds of agents, SUVs and equipment from the lower 48 to support protection for both Presidents on U.S. soil.
• Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson was selected as the summit venue for its controlled airspace, fortified gates and immediate military support.
• Reciprocity protocols mandate identical security measures for Trump and Putin, and planners are awaiting Moscow’s sign-off on the full protection plan.
• Anchorage’s hotels are fully booked and rental-car lots cleared, leading authorities to house agents in private rentals and import additional vehicles.
• State troopers and Anchorage police have mapped motorcade routes down to each turn and set perimeter checkpoints to keep both leaders secure and separate.
