Chile resuelve no organizar la APEC ni la COP 25 por crisis social

Santiago, Chile. El Gobierno de Chile canceló la organización de la cumbre de líderes del Foro de Cooperación del Asia Pacífico (APEC) y la del clima COP-25, que debían realizarse este año en Santiago, debido a la crisis social, informó este miércoles el presidente Sebastián Piñera.

“Nuestro gobierno, con profundo dolor, porque este es un dolor para Chile, ha resuelto no realizar la cumbre de APEC (...) ni tampoco la cumbre de la COP-25”, dijo el mandatario, sobre la reunión comercial que se iba a hacer en Santiago, entre el 16 y 17 de noviembre, y la del clima, entre el 2 y 13 de diciembre.
