Chilean President Jose Antonio Kast recently took office in March and held his first meeting with China's ambassador. Separately, Chile is engaged in discussions with the USTR regarding export conditions.
Chilean President Jose Antonio Kast received China’s ambassador to Santiago, Niu Qingbao, at the La Moneda Palace on Friday morning, in an encounter that lasted more than an hour and marked the first meeting between the two men since the right-wing leader took office in March.
The USTR first proposed it on June 3, opening a window for the Chilean foreign ministry and the export associations to make their case.
Santiago said in a statement that it would keep talking to the Trump administration to improve access conditions, including the exclusion of products it considers essential to the country’s export basket.
