For the purpose of this market, a "visit" is defined as Putin physically entering the terrestrial or maritime territory of China. Whether or not Putin enters Chinese airspace during the timeframe of this market will have no bearing on this market's resolution. The primary resolution source for this information will be official information from Vladimir Putin, the Federal Government of Russia, and the Chinese government; however, a consensus of credible reporting will also be used.Kremlin spokesman confirmed in February that President Vladimir Putin accepted Chinese President Xi Jinping's invitation for an official visit in the first half of 2026, following their videoconference where both leaders pledged to deepen strategic ties amid global tensions. Recent reports from South China Morning Post indicate the trip may occur in May, potentially shortly after U.S. President Donald Trump's rescheduled summit on May 14-15, marking an unprecedented back-to-back visits by U.S. and Russian leaders to Beijing. Traders price "Yes" at 75% implied probability, reflecting strong bilateral momentum and historical patterns of frequent Putin-Xi summits, though exact dates remain unannounced and subject to diplomatic scheduling amid ongoing Ukraine conflict and U.S.-Iran frictions.
