There may be a meeting between US President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping next month in the midst of a ruckus over the tariff. This meeting is going to be held after the SCO Summit in Tianjin recently, due to which the eyes of the world are on it. However, so far no information has been given by the White House regarding this meeting.

If sources are to be believed, it is possible to meet between the two leaders during the APEC summit in South Korea. APEC is considered to be the main platform of discussion on economic cooperation and strategic policies in the Asia-Pacific region. This time the importance of APEC has also increased because due to the tariff of Trump, there is anger among its member countries.

Swords were drawn between China and America over tariff

The trump administration’s anti -China policies, especially tariffs and business restrictions, have been a major cause of tension between the two countries. Trump recently accused China of conspiring against the US with Russia and North Korea. In such a situation, the possible meeting of Trump and Xi can prove to be a new twist of bilateral relationships, not only formalities.

This meeting is also an opportunity for Trump to respond to his critics. Republican Party and international analysts recently questioned Trump on the hosting of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong-un on behalf of China. If Xi Jinping and Trump interacts in APEC, it can also be a sign of possible improvement in America-China relations.

Putin-Modi attended SCO meeting

The presence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong-un caught the world’s attention at the recent Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) conference held in China. Trump called this strategic hosting of China as a conspiracy against the US. He made a sharp comment on social media saying that “It seems that we have lost India and Russia to China. However, he tried to partially back with his talk, stating his relations with Prime Minister Modi as strong and friendly. Still it is clear that countries like India, Russia and North Korea have indirect influence on America-China relations at this time.
