Follow-Up: Kremlin Confirms Nov. 19 Trilateral Meeting in Shenzhen, Peskov Says the Three Sides Have Agreed
Russian presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov told the TASS news agency on November 14 that the United States, China and Russia have reached an agreement to hold a trilateral meeting on November 19 in Shenzhen, on the sidelines of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) leaders' meeting. It is Moscow's first formal confirmation of the date and venue since the White House announced the plan on Friday.
White House spokeswoman Olivia Wales told reporters on Friday that President Donald Trump will meet Chinese President Xi Jinping and Russian President Vladimir Putin in Shenzhen next Thursday, in the first three-way meeting of the American, Chinese and Russian leaders. The White House said the talks will cover reducing nuclear weapons worldwide and Iran, and will not take up Ukraine. U.S. officials have said no agreement is expected, describing the session as the starting point for leader-level dialogue on nuclear arms reduction.
Before the Kremlin confirmation, Russian presidential aide Yuri Ushakov had said Moscow and Washington had not agreed on a separate bilateral meeting between Putin and Trump in Shenzhen. China's foreign ministry said on Friday that it remains in communication with the relevant parties regarding a meeting of the three heads of state and would share information when available, without formally confirming the schedule. The ministry has separately announced that Xi will chair the 33rd APEC Economic Leaders' Meeting in Shenzhen on November 18 and 19 and deliver remarks.
Under the schedule released by the White House, Trump leaves Washington on Monday for ASEAN-related meetings in Manila, travels on to Shenzhen on Wednesday, and holds a bilateral meeting and working lunch with Xi on Thursday before closing his China visit with the trilateral session.
