Watch: APEC summit: Trump, Xi and Putin set for historic trilateral talks

U.S. President Donald Trump, Chinese President Xi Jinping and Russian President Vladimir Putin are set to hold an unprecedented trilateral meeting on November 19, on the sidelines of the APEC summit in Shenzhen, China.

The leaders are expected to discuss the U.S.-Iran war, the Russia-Ukraine conflict and nuclear arms control. The proposed meeting comes months after the New START nuclear arms treaty between the U.S.

and Russia expired in February 2026. While the meeting could mark a significant diplomatic moment, analysts say expectations of major breakthroughs remain low.
