Founded near the end of the Cold War, the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) has evolved into a pivotal platform for promoting economic collaboration and tackling shared global challenges. In a world increasingly defined by geopolitical tensions, rising protectionism, and the urgent demand for sustainability, APEC’s role has never been more significant. The vision of building an Asia-Pacific with a shared future has never been more urgent or more necessary. In this episode, CGTN reporter Huang Fei unpacks the key outcomes of this year’s APEC meetings in Peru and explores how they could shape the economic trajectory of its 21 member economies and the world beyond.
