nypost.com —

President Trump will hold a trilateral summit with Chinese President Xi Jinping and Russian President Vladimir Putin next Thursday on the sidelines of the APEC conference in Shenzhen, focusing on a potential nuclear arms control pact. A White House official said discussions could also address the wars in Iran and North Korea. Trump has not met Putin in person since last August, while he hosted Xi at the White House in September. US envoys have met with Putin repeatedly this year on Ukraine. Trump confirmed the planned meeting, saying they would discuss denuclearization and efforts to end the war in Iran. The three nations control most of the world's nuclear weapons.
