The trilateral meeting is scheduled to take place on the sidelines of the 2026 Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit, which will bring together leaders from 21 member economies from November 18 to 19.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

White House spokesperson Olivia Wales said Trump intends to discuss several issues, including reducing nuclear weapons worldwide, which he considers a major security concern.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The president has made it clear that, among other topics, he will discuss the reduction of nuclear weapons in the world. This proliferation, President Trump believes, is very dangerous,” she told reporters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

US officials also said Trump is expected to discuss the war involving Iran, but not Russia’s war in Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A senior US official, speaking anonymously  to AFP, said Washington was pursuing separate negotiations with Kyiv and Moscow to end the Ukraine war, adding that China was not involved in those discussions.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trump is also scheduled to hold separate bilateral talks with Xi during his visit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He is due to leave Washington on Monday for the Philippines, where he will attend a meeting of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), before travelling to Shenzhen.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tesla and SpaceX chief executive Elon Musk is also expected to accompany Trump to China but will not participate in the meeting involving the three leaders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Relations between the United States, Russia and China have continued to attract international attention. Earlier this year, Xi hosted Putin and Trump separately in Beijing, with only a few days between their visits. Trump also hosted Xi in Washington in September. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The APEC summit is expected to focus on artificial intelligence, trade tensions and economic growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning said Beijing looked forward to the gathering and hoped to achieve more practical cooperation with participating economies in areas including AI, trade, connectivity and the digital economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
