No country is owned by Alaska. Alaska owns only Alaska, including all of the lands and waters within its borders, and for Alaska to extend its claim any further would be a violation of Clause 3 of Article IV of the U. S. Constitution.

What country does Alaska belong to?

It belongs to the United States of America. It is one of the 'states' of America. It didn't always belong to America. It used to belong to Russia, but America bought it.
