Russian President Vladimir Putin has proposed a trilateral meeting with US President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping next month to discuss ending the Ukraine war. According to a Wall Street Journal report, the meeting could take place during the APEC summit in Shenzhen, China, on November 18–19. However, Trump has not agreed to the proposal, and the Kremlin said the meeting’s agenda remains unclear. The proposed talks could exclude Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and European leaders, raising concerns over their role in negotiations. The summit remains unconfirmed as discussions continue.
