White House announces Trump-Xi-Putin trilateral meeting in China

abendzeitung-muenchen.de (German) —

The White House announced that US President Donald Trump, Chinese leader Xi Jinping, and Russian President Vladimir Putin will hold a trilateral meeting in China next week, with nuclear arms reduction on the agenda. This marks the first trilateral summit among the three nuclear powers, which previously only held bilateral talks. A US official downplayed expectations of concrete agreements, framing the discussion as an initial step following the expiration of the New START treaty. The meeting coincides with the APEC summit in Shenzhen. Trump and Putin last met bilaterally in Alaska in summer 2025, while recent US-mediated talks between Russia and Ukraine occurred in the UAE.
