The potential talks could take place in October in South Korea, the network has reported<\/strong><\/p>\n US President Donald Trump and Chinese leader Xi Jinping could meet in October in South Korea during the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) forum, CNN reported on Saturday, citing sources. This comes amid trade tensions between the two countries.<\/p>\n According to three unnamed Trump administration officials, the president and his top advisers “are quietly preparing”<\/em> to travel to the APEC meeting and hold talks with the trade ministers of member states. The APEC summit is scheduled for late October to early November in Gyeongju, South Korea.<\/p>\n The officials added that “there have been serious discussions about a bilateral meeting”<\/em> between Trump and Xi on the sidelines of the forum, but “no firm plans are in place.”<\/em><\/p>\n Trade tensions between the US and China have been running high. In early 2025, Trump imposed sweeping tariffs as high as 145% on Chinese goods, prompting reciprocal tariffs of 125% from Beijing. The two countries agreed in May, however, to a temporary tariff truce, which has been extended to mid-November.<\/p>\n
