The latest news on the long-mooted potential for a trilateral summit between Presidents Putin, Xi, and Trump at the November APEC meeting came on Sept. 8 when Russian Presidential Press Secretary Dmitry Peskov responded to a question from a reporter about whether such a meeting was possible. “Absolutely,” he said. The Kremlin had indicated that such a meeting had also been mooted in the recent telephone call between Putin and Trump. “This potential possibility has been mentioned before, and there will be such an opportunity,” Peskov said.
