Chinese President Xi Jinping has launched a week-long diplomatic mission in South America, starting with the inauguration of the Chancay deep-water port in Peru. This $1.3 billion project, part of China’s Belt and Road Initiative, is a critical link in Xi’s modern maritime Silk Road. As Xi attends the APEC Summit in Lima and the G20 in Brazil, China is solidifying its role as the top trade partner in Latin America, surpassing the US. However, Washington is alarmed, with concerns over Chancay’s potential naval use. Protests in Peru add tension as global leaders converge.
