发帖数: 42116 | 1 Broad agreement on what would be the world's biggest free trade deal is
expected to be reached at a leaders' summit in Singapore in November, the
city-state's trade minister said Saturday.
The 16-nation Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP), which will
cover about half the world's population and a third of its GDP, has taken
centre stage as Washington embarks on a unilateral, protectionist agenda.
The RCEP is backed by China and notably excludes the US, which had been
leading another regional pact -- the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) --
until President Donald Trump abandoned it on coming to office early last
year. |
