Piotr Tolstoi emphasized that the division of influence among Russia, the US, and China at the upcoming APEC summit is more crucial than peace talks regarding Ukraine. He believes that if leaders like Putin, Trump, and Xi can agree on security guarantees, it would overshadow ceasefire negotiations. Tolstoi mentioned the potential for a trilateral meeting in Shenzhen during the summit, while Kremlin spokesperson Dmitri Peskov noted ongoing discussions about the agenda. Speculation surrounds the summit, with comparisons to the 1945 Yalta Conference, as it could help Putin escape diplomatic isolation. The EU opposes discussing European security without its involvement, while Ukrainian President Zelensky expressed concerns about a potential 'Yalta 2'.
