U.S. President Donald Trump will hold the first-ever trilateral summit between the United States, China and Russia with Chinese President Xi Jinping and Russian President Vladimir Putin on November 19 in Shenzhen, China. It will be the first trilateral summit among the three countries.

According to CNN and other foreign media reports, the White House said on November 13 (local time) that denuclearization would be a key topic at the trilateral summit, which will be held on the sidelines of the APEC summit in China.

White House spokesperson Olivia Wales said, "President Trump has made clear that, among various issues, he intends to discuss reducing nuclear weapons worldwide," adding, "President Trump believes nuclear proliferation is extremely dangerous."

According to CNN, the last nuclear arms treaty between the United States and Russia expired in February.

Citing government sources, the outlet said the chances of reaching a new denuclearization agreement at the trilateral summit were low, given that China is rapidly expanding its nuclear arsenal. The sources suggested that "this summit will be merely a starting point."
