Deep dives

Highlights from the APEC Summit

The APEC Summit in San Francisco concluded with China's President, Xi Jinping, attracting business leaders, including Elon Musk and Pfizer's Albert Borla, to a dinner. However, Xi did not mention trade or investment in China, disappointing the attendees. The meeting resulted in de-escalation and improved tones, but it is unlikely that this will last given the future challenges. Business leaders applauded when Xi mentioned the possibility of sending giant pandas back to the U.S. as a gesture of friendship.
