This market will resolve to "Yes" if Xi Jinping meets with one or more Iranian government officials by May 15, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". A meeting is defined as any encounter where both Xi and one or more Iranian government officials are present and interact with each other in person. An exchange of words, handshake, direct conversation, or other clear personal interaction between the named individuals will qualify as a meeting. Merely standing in proximity, making eye contact, or being present in the same room or event without direct interaction will not qualify. The resolution source will be a consensus of credible reporting.Trader consensus favors "No" at 62% for President Xi Jinping meeting Iranian officials by May 15, reflecting the absence of any official announcement or scheduled bilateral summit amid heightened China-Iran diplomacy over the US-Iran conflict and Strait of Hormuz tensions. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi's visit to Beijing starting May 6 focuses on talks with his counterpart Wang Yi on bilateral ties and regional issues, with no confirmed agenda including Xi despite unverified speculation. Xi's recent Middle East engagement—such as April ceasefire calls during a UAE crown prince meeting—has stayed at statement or lower levels, while preparations dominate for his May 14-15 summit hosting US President Trump, where Iran features prominently, crowding potential additional meetings.
