US President Donald Trump says he would be willing to join Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping in talks aimed at reducing nuclear weapons and advancing global denuclearization. Trump suggested that cooperation among the three major nuclear powers could help prevent a dangerous arms race and strengthen international security.
His remarks come amid growing concerns over expanding nuclear arsenals, rising geopolitical tensions and the weakening of existing arms control arrangements. Washington, Moscow and Beijing each maintain significant nuclear capabilities, but their approaches to weapons reductions and strategic security differ.
Any progress would require complex negotiations, including discussions on limits to nuclear stockpiles, transparency and reliable verification measures. Building trust among the three governments remains a major challenge, particularly as competition continues across several areas of global security.
Although Trump has expressed openness to cooperation, no agreement has been confirmed. Whether the leaders could establish a shared framework for reducing nuclear weapons would depend on their willingness to make commitments and address competing security concerns.
The proposal highlights the continuing importance of nuclear diplomacy as global powers seek to manage strategic risks and prevent further escalation.
