Chinese President Xi Jinping called on members of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) to jointly uphold the multilateral trading system.
His remarks came during the first session of the 32nd APEC Economic Leaders’ Meeting in Gyeongju, the Republic of Korea. The gathering brings together leaders from across the Asia-Pacific to discuss open markets, fair trade rules and shared prosperity.
For young entrepreneurs, tech innovators and global citizens, a strong multilateral framework means smoother cross-border collaboration, more resilient supply chains and wider access to markets. Xi’s appeal at Gyeongju underscores a common goal: keeping trade channels open and dynamic in an interlinked world.
