Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov has commented on the prospects of a possible near-term visit to Moscow by US President Donald Trump, infohub.kz reports.
In August 2025, during a summit in Anchorage, Russian President Vladimir Putin invited US President Donald Trump to Moscow for their next meeting.
However, in October 2026, Putin's spokesman Dmitry Peskov said a Trump visit to Moscow is not currently expected. "That is not on the table right now — everyone is looking to Shenzhen," Peskov said.
It was previously reported that Russia, the United States and China had left open the possibility of a trilateral meeting, which is expected to address the situation in Ukraine.
Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha believes a possible meeting between Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping will not help end the war.
US President Donald Trump has said he is ready for a trilateral meeting with Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping, adding that it could take place in China.
Later, Yuri Ushakov, an aide to Russian President Vladimir Putin, said China is already preparing for a possible meeting between the Russian president, Chinese President Xi Jinping and US President Donald Trump.
The meeting could take place during the APEC summit, which will be held on November 18–19 in the Chinese city of Shenzhen.
The United Nations, meanwhile, has voiced support for a possible Trump-Putin-Xi meeting.
