深圳 Apec 峰会临近，中美谈判代表加紧敲定具体投资协议
US-China negotiators race to nail down concrete deals as Shenzhen Apec looms
中美谈判代表正加紧敲定具体投资协议，为两国领导人下月在深圳举行会晤作准备。双方仍在争夺延长贸易协议的谈判筹码，未来几周将继续协商，但复杂的制度框架和经济协议仍阻碍整体方案最终敲定。消息人士称，双方在 Board of Investment 议题上已取得显著进展。
The US and China are racing to secure concrete investment deals ahead of their leaders’ meeting in Shenzhen next month, even as both sides engage in a contest over leverage in extending their broad trade agreement.
Multiple sources told the South China Morning Post that intense negotiations would continue in coming weeks, with Washington and Beijing still facing hurdles to finalising a complex package of institutional frameworks and economic agreements.
The sources, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said negotiators had made considerable progress on the Board of Investment discussions since President Xi Jinping and his US counterpart Donald Trump met last month in Washington.
The two leaders will meet again on the sidelines of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (Apec) summit in China’s southern tech hub in November – their second meeting in two months and third this year.
