Ongoing diplomatic efforts through U.S. envoys, including recent Moscow talks with Putin on Ukraine peace proposals, have kept direct Trump-Putin summits on hold since the 2025 Alaska meeting, sustaining the tight race between a China venue and no 2026 gathering. Kremlin signals of possible trilateral discussions with Xi at the November APEC summit in Shenzhen have lifted China's implied probability, while U.S. statements emphasize waiting for concrete progress toward a settlement before scheduling another bilateral encounter. This dynamic leaves room for late-year multilateral or bilateral breakthroughs to shift trader consensus, or for continued impasse to favor the no-meeting outcome by year-end.
