Main Points
Donald Trump announced on Sunday that he may meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping next week to discuss ending the war in Iran. Trump told reporters that he expects to attend the Asia‑Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) forum in Shenzhen, China, scheduled for November 18‑19, and that one of the meetings will involve both Putin and Xi. “I’m going to China,” Trump said. “I think one of the meetings will be with President Putin and President Xi, and that will be interesting.” He added that the talks would cover a range of topics, including denuclearization, and that the goal was to end the conflict in Iran. The Kremlin confirmed on October 21 that the trilateral meeting was being prepared. The statement followed a report by The Wall Street Journal that suggested Putin wanted the three‑way talks to facilitate a peace agreement in Ukraine that would favor Moscow. Trump’s willingness to engage with leaders of authoritarian regimes has drawn criticism. His outreach to Putin is seen by some observers as part of an effort to reduce Russia’s international isolation, which intensified after the country’s 2022 invasion of Ukraine.
