September looms as a risk month for stocks, Yardeni says
Investing.com -- Russian President Vladimir Putin will travel to China from August 31 to September 3 for talks with President Xi Jinping, a security summit, and a military parade, according to Kremlin foreign policy aide Yuri Ushakov.
The four-day visit to Russia’s largest trading partner is an unusually long trip for Putin, Ushakov told reporters on Friday.
Putin will spend the first two days attending the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) summit in Tianjin. He will then proceed to Beijing for discussions with Xi and to attend a September 3 military parade in Tiananmen Square commemorating the end of World War Two following Japan’s formal surrender.
At the parade, Putin will be seated as "the main guest" on Xi’s right side, while North Korean leader Kim Jong-Un will be positioned on Xi’s left.
The Russian president is also scheduled to hold bilateral meetings with several world leaders during his China visit, including Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian, and Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan.
Ushakov noted that a meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong-Un was still under discussion and not yet confirmed.
