What happened
Donald Trump announced plans for a meeting with Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping in Shenzhen to discuss dividing the world among major powers. This proposal came after Trump signed an executive order waiving key sections of the Lindsey Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act, which eliminated 500 percent tariffs on Russian goods and secondary sanctions on Putin’s oil customers.

Why it matters
The proposed summit suggests a major realignment of global power dynamics, potentially excluding Ukraine from discussions about its fate. The executive order significantly alters US trade and sanctions policy toward Russia, removing previous restrictions.
Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin are coordinating actions in the Indo-Pacific while the Trump administration pivots away from European alliances and Russia escalates hybrid warfare against Ukraine.
