Trump Open to Three-Way Summit with Putin and Xi in China

In October 2026, US President Donald Trump said he is open to a joint meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping during a trip to China. Trump also said he was uncertain about meeting North Korea's Kim Jong Un during the trip.

Trump said the meeting could happen "with or without" Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, and that "it's time for somebody else to negotiate for Ukraine." He also said he wants a focus on denuclearization.
