Megapuerto de Perú construido por China dará nueva forma al comercio en el Pacífico

By Jordi Bou

November 14, 2024 - Se espera que el puerto Chancay de $3.500m se convierta en un centro importante para el comercio entre América del Sur y Asia, retando la influencia de EUA en la regiónrica en recursos que Washington ha considerado por mucho tiempo su patio trasero.

Peru, the world’s no. 2 copper exporter, is set to host the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit on Nov 13-15, with China’s President Xi Jinping expected to attend and inaugurate the Chancay port.

Chancay, the argest deep water port in South America – is expected to be a major hub for imports of Asian electronics, textiles and other consumer goods and for the export of minerals, including lithium from Chile and copper from both Chile and Peru.

The port’s operations are expected to begin as international concerns grow over dealing with the U.S. with a newly re-elected Donald Trump as president.

Over the last ten years, Beijing has unseated the U.S. as the largest trade partner for South America.
