Ambassador says new US-China deal will bring new opportunities for DR

China ambassador Zhang Run says the signing of a first phase of the trade deal between China and the United States will benefit the Dominican Republic. In an op-ed contribution in Diario Libre, the Chinese ambassador highlights that both China and the United States are important DR trading partners.

The ambassador asserts the trade agreement will bring new opportunities for the Dominican Republic. “We must continue to focus on the key bilateral agenda, fully exploit the complementary potential, continue to implement the principle of mutual benefit and win-win, and comply with laws and market rules. We must attach importance to protecting the business environment, preventing politicization or geo-politicization of economic and trade issues,” he writes.

“Only if the world is right, China and the Dominican Republic will be better off. Both sides must strengthen coordination, work with countries around the world, support multilateralism and promote the development of the global economic order in a more just and reasonable direction,” he explains in his focus on the new US-China agreement.
