Putin, Xi and Trump Could Meet at APEC Summit: Kremlin
The Kremlin said no meeting agenda or proposal has been discussed, while a Wall Street Journal report said Putin sought talks on the Ukraine war.
- On Sunday, The Wall Street Journal reported President Vladimir Putin seeks a summit with Trump and Chinese leaders to discuss the Ukraine war, though Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said no substantive proposals have been discussed.
- The Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation group will hold a summit in Shenzhen, China, from November 18-19, providing a potential venue where all three heads of state might attend.
- Putin has repeatedly ruled out meeting Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky until after a peace deal is ready. Peskov stated, "It goes without saying that a final settlement is impossible without the participation of someone from Kyiv."
- Trump recently attacked Zelensky, charging that the leader "doesn't want to end this war," while recent sanctions waivers fuel fears in Kyiv and Europe that the White House is steering toward Moscow.
- Ukraine has rejected the notion of peace without its participation, arguing Putin's refusal to meet Zelensky shows he has no interest in ending the war. The Kremlin rejects assertions it favors Moscow.
