Exclusive – G7 summit statement to target China’s ‘economic coercion’ – source
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Leaders of the Group of Seven (G7) countries are set to issue a statement of concern about China’s use of economic leverage abroad when they gather next week, according to a U.S. official familiar with the discussions.
That statement, a likely component of the overall communique that will be released by leaders during the May 19 to 21 summit in Hiroshima, Japan, is expected to be paired with a broader written proposal for how the seven advanced economies will work together to counter “economic coercion” from any country.
