Chinese President Xi Jinping has pledged to create a "multipolar" world during the APEC summit in Peru, emphasizing China's growing influence in the Asia-Pacific region. This comes amid rising concerns about the potential return of Donald Trump to the U.S. presidency. Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese acknowledged the benefits of Chinese investment but noted tensions in his meeting with Indonesia's President Prabowo Subianto. Prabowo highlighted the need to manage relations with China and reduce regional tensions, particularly regarding the South China Sea. Prabowo's comments reflect Indonesia's cautious approach to China's maritime claims, while also seeking to strengthen ties with neighboring countries. Both leaders expressed a commitment to cooperation on security and trade amidst these geopolitical challenges.
