## Summary

Donald Trump is expected to meet Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin at a trilateral summit next Thursday in Shenzhen, alongside the APEC conference. The talks are expected to focus on a potential nuclear arms control pact, bringing together leaders of the three countries that hold most of the world’s nuclear weapons.

A White House official said the leaders could also discuss Iran and North Korea; the war in Ukraine may come up as well. Trump last met Putin in person at an Alaska summit last August and hosted Xi at the White House in September. US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner have met Putin repeatedly this year, most recently on Thursday, as they seek progress towards ending Russia’s war in Ukraine.
