Summary
President Trump said Monday he would be willing to hold a summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping, possibly alongside the APEC meeting in Shenzhen next month, to discuss denuclearization, not necessarily Ukraine. He said no agreement has been reached. The Kremlin has floated such a meeting since July, with Putin raising it in phone calls with Trump, including one last week. China has not expressed willingness to participate.
