The U.S. President, Donald Trump, will discuss the war against Iran during a rare meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese leader Xi Jinping in Shenzhen, China, according to a White House official. The meeting, scheduled for Thursday, will take place on the sidelines of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit.
The White House confirmed that Trump will not bring up Russia’s war in Ukraine or the controversy surrounding Jensen Huang, CEO of NVIDIA. The focus will be on the conflict with Iran, which has been a key issue in U.S. Foreign policy. The meeting marks the first time the world’s three largest nuclear powers will gather in a single session.
This summit comes amid heightened tensions in the Middle East, with Iran continuing its nuclear program and regional allies. The U.S. Has imposed sanctions on Iranian officials and military leaders, while Iran has responded with increased missile tests and diplomatic defiance. The meeting is seen as an opportunity for Trump to coordinate with allies on countermeasures against Iran’s nuclear ambitions.
The gathering follows months of diplomatic maneuvering, including U.S. Efforts to strengthen alliances in the region and counter Iranian influence. The APEC summit, hosted by China, provides a platform for high-level discussions on global security and economic cooperation. The meeting with Trump, Putin, and Xi is expected to be a significant moment in international relations.
