Why It Matters
Kremlin aide Oshakov has said that Putin, Trump and Xi Jinping may meet during the APEC summit in November.
Russia's TASS news agency reported that Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov said on the 6th that he would not rule out the possibility of trilateral talks between the heads of state of Russia, the United States and China. But Ryabkov said that before North Korea can make concrete preparations for the three-party talks, it must first clarify the agenda of the meeting.
Ryabkov said that the most important issue in the trilateral talks between the United States, China and Russia is how to formulate the specific content of the plan and what results are expected.
Kremlin aide Yuri Ushakov said earlier this month that Russian President Vladimir Putin, U.S. President Trump, and Chinese President Xi Jinping may hold a trilateral meeting during the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) leaders' summit in Shenzhen, China, in November.
In addition, Ryabkov was asked by TASS on the 5th about the visit of US special envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, saying that when it comes to resolving the conflict in Ukraine, Washington should take into account the reality on the ground, that is, the current situation is turning in a direction that is unfavorable to Kyiv. Wei and Ku have concluded their talks with Putin.
