It is anticipated that U.S. President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping are likely to hold a summit during the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit scheduled to be held in Gyeongju, North Gyeongsang Province, in October.

Hong Kong's South China Morning Post (SCMP) reported on the 20th, citing multiple sources, that there is a high possibility of the two leaders meeting at the upcoming APEC summit.

The summit is mentioned to possibly occur either with President Trump visiting China before attending the APEC summit or through a separate meeting with President Xi during the APEC period.

President Trump has reportedly not yet decided whether to attend the APEC summit, but according to U.S. senior officials, SCMP noted that Trump’s likelihood of attending is considered high.
