Only nuclear weapons and Iran: Trump, Putin and Xi will not discuss Ukraine. Reuters.
Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping plan to hold the first-ever trilateral meeting of the leaders of the United States, Russia and China. The negotiations are scheduled for next Thursday, November 19, on the sidelines of the APEC summit in Shenzhen, China. Preparations for the meeting were officially announced at the White House.
According to Reuters, the main issue will be the reduction of nuclear weapons. Trump intends to discuss with the leaders of Russia and China the proliferation of nuclear weapons, which he considers a serious threat. The agenda will also include the war between the US and Israel against Iran. At the same time, they do not plan to discuss the Ukrainian conflict. The representative of the American administration explained that Washington is conducting negotiations on Ukraine in a separate diplomatic channel, in which China does not participate.
The American side does not expect the first meeting to lead to concrete agreements on nuclear disarmament. It was actually seen as the beginning of a dialogue between the three major nuclear powers. At the same time, Beijing has so far been reticent about the idea of limiting its nuclear arsenal, which is significantly inferior to that of Russia and the United States.
