"Xi Jinping's Next Move: China's Leader to Meet North Korean Counterpart Amid Global Tensions. Weeks after high-stakes meetings with US and Russian leaders, Chinese President Xi Jinping is set to meet with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un in a move that could have significant implications for regional security and global diplomacy. The summit comes at a time of heightened tensions between major world powers, with North Korea's nuclear program and China's growing economic influence in the region casting a long shadow over the proceedings. As Xi and Kim sit down for talks, observers will be watching closely to see how the two leaders navigate the complex web of alliances and rivalries that define the region."
It is taking place weeks after Xi met the leaders of the US and Russia - two countries that loom large over North Korea's foreign policy.
