香港将于本月20日至21日首次举办亚太经济合作组织(APEC)财长会议1。据港媒报道,美国财政部长贝森特可能不会出席此次会议1。贝森特的缺席主要是为了集中精力筹备美国总统川普11月访问深圳出席APEC峰会1。
美国政府计划改派财政部副部长布朗领导美国代表团参加香港会议1。布朗目前负责跟进落实中美贸易休战安排,并参与双边投资对话1。川普访深期间将与中国国家主席习近平会面,双方寻求延长将于明年1月10日到期的贸易战休战期限1。
Hong Kong will host an APEC finance ministers meeting on November 20-21, marking the first time the city has hosted this gathering 1. According to Hong Kong media reports, US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen is unlikely to attend the event 1. The United States plans instead to send Deputy Treasury Secretary Erin Browne to lead the American delegation 1.
The reason cited for Yellen's likely absence is her focus on preparing for President Donald Trump's planned visit to Shenzhen in November to attend the APEC summit 1. During that summit, Trump is expected to meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping to discuss extending the trade war truce, which is set to expire on January 10 1. Browne, who oversees implementation of the US-China trade ceasefire arrangements and participates in bilateral investment dialogues, is positioned to represent American interests at the Hong Kong meeting 1.
