Xi's Ideas Better than Trump's at APEC Summit

First in the use of the word, Trump warned that he would not sign large agreements that he considered disadvantageous for his country and was in favor of bilateral treaties rather than multilateralism.
In a scenario open to free trade, integration and multilateralism, the US ruler pointed out that 'we will not enter into big agreements that have us tied up.'
Many opportunities for mutual benefit have been lost because there are people who cannot be trusted, who do not follow the rules. We cannot and will not allow it anymore, he said admonishingly.
Entrenched in his slogan of 'the United States first', he ruled out multilateral agreements such as APEC (so why did it come ?, many wondered) or the Transpacific of Economic Cooperation, which he put into crisis shortly after entering the White House and that right here he tries to save himself from the shipwreck.
The billionaire turned politician said that in the past Washington opened its economy without putting conditions, an attitude according to him unrequited, and criticized the World Trade Organization for allowing the entry of States that do not meet the standards of the institution.
From this day forward, we will compete fairly and equally, he warned.
In addition, in one of the phrases that left the worst flavor, he stressed, 'We are not going to let them continue taking advantage of the United States'.
In stark contrast to Trump, Xi Jinping spoke about free trade, multilateralism and integration.
The Chinese dignitary described globalization as 'an irreversible historical trend,' adding that the benefits of that process must be 'more open, inclusive and balanced' and he stressed Beijing's willingness to contribute to that goal.
The less developed nations are going to benefit from China's economic growth, he promised.
He called the other APEC economies (Australia, Brunei, Canada, Chile, South Korea, the United States, the Philippines, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Peru, Russia, Singapore, Taiwan) , Thailand and Vietnam) to preserve multilateralism through cooperation and close association.
With open economies, everyone can take advantage, while isolation leaves others behind, he said.
The president said that as the world's second largest economy and one of the main drivers of global growth, China is aware of its responsibilities and said it will comply.
In one of his frequent messages on social media, Trump wrote today about his current tour of Asia: 'During my travels, I had the pleasure of sharing good news about America. I have had the honor of sharing our vision of a free and open Indo-Pacific, a place where sovereign and independent nations, with diverse cultures and many different dreams, can all thrive side by side'.
The paragraph would have been beautiful if his speech at the APEC Summit had even resembled that of the Chinese president.

Da Nang (Vietnam), Nov 10 (Prensa Latina) The speeches delivered today at the Summit of the Asia-Pacific Cooperation Forum (APEC) by the presidents of the United States, Donald Trump, and China, Xi Jinping, were at the antipodes of a globalized world.
For greater contrast pronounced one after the other, the speeches of the two leaders provided a view of very different ways of seeing the world and, consequently, left different flavors in an audience that already expected some of that.
