U.S. President Donald Trump had said he would sign a preliminary trade accord with China’s Xi Jinping at the Nov. 16-17 Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum. Chile’s decision to cancel the meeting highlights the depth of trouble facing the Latin American nation that has seen the worst unrest in a generation. Until just two days ago, the government had insisted it would go ahead with the summit.
Pinera said the government had spoken to other presidents to warn them of the cancellation.
Trump had said he expected to sign “phase one” of a trade deal with China when he met with his counterpart in Santiago. That partial deal, which Trump announced the contours of Oct. 11, had calmed fears in financial markets of a continuing escalation in the trade war that has cast a shadow over the global economy for the past 18 months.
