POLICY WIRE — Beijing, China — Chinese officials have officially acknowledged that they are in discussions to bring together three world leaders: President Donald Trump of the United States, President Vladimir Putin of Russia, and President Xi Jinping of China.
Spokeswoman for the Chinese foreign ministry, Mao Ning, confirmed these deliberations during a press briefing this week, marking a significant step in diplomatic transparency.
This development follows earlier reports from the Kremlin, where the top foreign policy adviser stated that Beijing has already begun making arrangements for a potential first-of-its-kind trilateral meeting next month.
While President Trump has expressed openness to joining his Chinese and Russian counterparts at the upcoming APEC summit, analysts note that the finalization of such a historic gathering remains uncertain.
The prospect of this convergence has drawn comparisons to major historical diplomatic summits, raising questions about the implications for the postwar international order in Asia and beyond.
