Trump said he and Putin may have a summit in a few weeks. This means negotiators are scripting the agreements the leaders will ratify at a summit meeting. [[User:RobSmith|RobS]]<sup>[[User talk:RobSmith|''Zelensky Must Go!'']]</sup> 00:47, May 17, 2025 (EDT)

:Example: Many cultural [[idiom]]s need to be discussed and overcome. In 1972 [[Nixon]] didn't just hop on a plane and fly to [[Moscow]] & [[Beijing]]. Careful advance preparation was made. Nixon requested to visit the [[Great Wall of China]], but was informed it was a symbol of [[oppression]] in China. It was built by the [[slave]] labor of [[tyrannical]] regimes, and many Chinese ancestors' bones are buried in the Wall. To Chinese, it is likened to [[Auschwitz]], and Nixon's request and visit might be misunderstood. The Americans (of course) countered that if China & the [[United States]] were to normalize relations, the Great Wall could become a good source of [[revenue]] via [[tourism]].
:'''Update:''' [[Peskov]]: No summit in the works.
