President Trump will travel to China next week for a historic three-way meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping and Russian President Vladimir Putin, the White House confirmed. The trilateral summit is unprecedented and is expected to cover topics including nuclear weapons stockpiles, though the White House has indicated it does not expect a full agreement to emerge from those discussions.

Elon Musk will accompany Trump on the Asia trip but will be excluded from the talks with Xi and Putin, according to U.S. officials. A U.S. official also confirmed that no bilateral meeting between Trump and Putin is currently planned as part of the visit.

The recently surfaced Nvidia scandal, which involves espionage concerns, will not be on the agenda for the Trump-Xi summit, U.S. officials said. Officials also indicated the controversy is unlikely to disrupt or derail the Asia trip altogether.
