Trump will travel to South Korea in late October for the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit, where talks with Chinese President Xi Jinping and possibly North Korean leader Kim Jong Un could take place. According to Benzinga, the White House is finalizing Trump’s trip to Gyeongju for the Asia-Pacific summit, with U.S. officials highlighting a possible bilateral meeting with Xi. A White House official said Trump’s potential South Korea visit would focus on economic collaboration while also covering trade, defense, and civil nuclear cooperation. South Korean President Lee Jae Myung invited Trump to the summit as an opportunity to meet Kim. Trump’s visit follows Xi’s meeting with Kim, Putin, and Modi in Beijing, which he criticized online while asserting he still has strong ties with the leaders.
