️🇺🇸🇨🇳🇷🇺WSJ: A proposed arms control summit between US President Trump, Chinese President Xi and Russian President Putin faces uncertainty amid disagreements between Washington and Beijing over its format and agenda.
Beijing wants closely monitored proceedings, with prepared statements, an agreed agenda and little time for discussion. However, the US wants a looser format to allow for further discussion between the three delegations.
In Beijing, it is estimated that any discussion on arms control between the three powers could lock them into a nuclear landing, which is a non-starter.
