US President Donald Trump plans to discuss Iran's ongoing war when he meets with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping at a summit in Shenzhen next week, according to a US official. The White House spokeswoman Olivia Wales confirmed the details of the three-way meeting, which is set to take place on the sidelines of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in Shenzhen, southern China.
According to the official, Trump intends to address the issue of reducing nuclear weapons worldwide during the summit, as he has expressed concern over the proliferation of these dangerous arms. Moreover, the official revealed that Trump's administration is conducting separate negotiations with Ukraine and Russia to bring an end to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. However, China is not involved in this track of discussions, making it inappropriate to discuss Ukraine's war in the context of the China summit.
