Former Peruvian congressman Guillermo Aliaga has spotlighted the high-stakes diplomatic dance between China and the U.S. at this week's APEC gathering in Lima. Calling the Xi-Biden meeting a “win for global security,” Aliaga emphasized that the world’s two largest economies hold the keys to unlocking stability—or chaos—for everyone else. 💼🌍
Aliaga, a legal expert, told reporters that decisions made by Beijing and Washington don’t just ripple through their own markets—they create tidal waves across industries worldwide. “Think climate policies, AI regulations, or even your TikTok feed,” he quipped, drawing parallels to pop culture. 📱⚖️
With the U.S. election cycle heating up, the ex-lawmaker expressed hope for “continuity in dialogue,” comparing smooth cross-Pacific relations to a well-choreographed K-pop routine: “When the big players sync up, the whole world benefits.” 💃🕺
His comments come as APEC members—including the Chinese mainland and the U.S.—discuss everything from green tech to trade frameworks this week. For young professionals and students tracking global power dynamics, Aliaga’s take serves as both a reality check and a hopeful nod to diplomacy.
