LIMA (Reuters) – Peru and China will sign an updated free-trade agreement that would boost commerce by at least 50% between the countries during President Xi Jinping’s upcoming visit to the Andean nation, Peru’s foreign affairs minister said on Friday.
In an interview with Reuters in Lima, Minister Elmer Schialer said that the Chinese president would travel to Peru with a delegation of 400 business people interested in investing in infrastructure and technology projects in the country.
