Meetings for three Putin, Trump Xi, it seems that there will be no - political scientist Giorgi Bowatt on the bilateral meeting between Putin and Trump, as well as a bilateral meeting between Putin and Xi Jinping. In the past, the possibility of a triplet format was discussed, but now everything is quiet. Xi Jinping does not want to meet three. But in a bilateral meeting it is important what the content will be. It will take place after the American elections, which Republicans may lose, and it will affect Trump's behavior. The deal with Putin, apparently, will not bring him victory, it is slowing down a lot, it has reached the point where American companies do not want to receive Russian diesel. It is not clear where the Russian negotiating position for the meeting with Trump may change. This is a new step beyond repeating the spirit of Anchorage, which is already dead. This move is not yet visible, so the meeting itself can become a protocol event: shaking hands and parting.
