Kremlin unaware about possibility of Putin-Trump-Xi meeting in China

The Kremlin confirmed that President Vladimir Putin is preparing to visit Beijing for a military parade on September 3 marking 80 years since World War Two's end, with no confirmed plans that US President Donald Trump will attend.
The potential for a Trump-Putin or three-way meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping in Beijing depends on whether Trump travels there, as Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said the possibility cannot be ruled out but no plans are confirmed.
This comes amid Trump's July 14 deadline threatening severe secondary tariffs on countries trading with Russia if Moscow does not agree to a peace deal, with China as a major target due to its support for Russia's economy including large oil purchases.
Trump set a 50-day ceasefire deadline expiring in early September, coinciding with Beijing's anniversary events, while Putin and Trump have spoken several times in 2025 and the Kremlin supports a well-prepared face-to-face meeting to produce results.
The evolving diplomatic context suggests the upcoming months may see increased pressure on Russia to negotiate peace and potential high-level talks in Beijing, depending on leaders' attendance and broader international dynamics.
