We believe that dialogue is good. Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese welcomes the Trump, Xi Jinping and Putin summit. The Guardian. Australia backed a historic summit in China next week involving Donald Trump, Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin, even as European leaders warned the US president must not make major concessions on the war in Ukraine. Anthony Albanese welcomed the talks but stressed that the clear message to Putin must be that the war must end. Albanese did not rule out the possibility of joining a group photo with Putin at the APEC summit. "We believe that the dialogue is good and we expect its results," he said.
