Analysis-A New ‘Yalta’? Trump and Putin Push for a Meeting that Xi Is Wary of Hosting
The leaders are expected to discuss Iran, nuclear arms control and artificial intelligence, while analysts warn the talks may produce no breakthrough.
- Next week in Shenzhen, President Donald Trump, Chinese President Xi Jinping, and Russian President Vladimir Putin may meet at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum, with negotiations underway to finalize an agenda.
- Russia seeks an agreement to end the Ukraine conflict, while Trump pursues arms control following electoral losses; Beijing resists arms control discussions, fearing it frames China as a major nuclear power.
- Negotiations remain down-to-the-wire with no agenda set, according to two people familiar with the planning; Moscow views the meeting as elevating Russia to superpower status, while Beijing tries to present itself as an advocate for smaller nations.
- Officials from Kyiv to Tokyo fear a potential 'Yalta' conference redistributing influence, with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy stating last month, "We really don't want this to turn into 'Yalta 2, 3, 4,' with a redistribution of influence."
- While the US and Russia each possess more than 5,000 nuclear warheads, China has around 500, prospects for a grand bargain remain slim; a US official said on Friday that Trump is not likely to raise the Ukraine war.
