President of Peru Dina Boluarte will pay a state visit to China to meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping in late June, 2024.[1]

Background[edit]

In May 2024, the Minister of Agriculture and Irrigation of Peru Andrés Alencastre spoke to reporters at the national palace following a cabinet meeting,[2] noting that the agenda for June's presidential summit is expected to cover 29 issues including the potential beef trade with China.[3]

On June 5, 2024, the plenary session of the Congress of the Republic of Peru approved Draft Legislative Resolution 8019 that authorizes the departure of President Dina Boluarte to China. [4]

Boluarte is scheduled to meet with executives from Chinese telecoms giant Huawei, electric carmaker BYD, port services provider COSCO Shipping Ports, Jinzhao Mining and China Railway Construction Corporation (CRCC).[5] In January 2019, COSCO Shipping Group acquired a 60% stake in Puerto Chancay, and the project entered the construction phase after the official delivery.[6] Puerto Chancay is scheduled to open at the end of 2024, when Peru will host the 2024 Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit.[7][8]
