BEIJING (Reuters) -Chinese President Xi Jinping will visit South Korea from October 30 to November 1 for the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit, Beijing's foreign ministry said on Friday, without confirming a meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump.

Xi will deliver a speech at APEC and hold bilateral meetings with other leaders, including South Korean President Lee Jae Myung, Guo Jiakun, a spokesperson for the ministry, said at a press briefing on Friday.

The White House said on Thursday that Trump would have a bilateral meeting with Xi on the morning of October 30.

When asked about the meeting, Guo said China would "release further information in a timely manner".

Officials from China and the United States are due to arrive in Malaysia on Friday for another round of trade talks to calm an escalating tit-for-tat trade war.
