Agi: Dazi, colloqui Usa-Cina in Corea del Sud AGI - Il vice primo ministro della Cina, He Lifeng, terrà colloqui commerciali con funzionari Usa in Corea del Sud la prossima settimana in vista del previsto vertice tra i leader Xi Jinping e Donald Trump. Lo riportano media statali cinesi secondo i quali le due parti si incontreranno martedì e mercoledì per "consultazioni su questioni commerciali di interesse comune". Il ministero del Commercio cinese in un comunicato ha poi annunciato che il vice primo ministro, He Lifeng, il massimo funzionario economico di Pechino, parteciperà a "consultazioni su questioni economiche e commerciali di interesse comune" in Corea del Sud martedì e mercoledì della prossima settimana. Il messaggio di Bessent Il segretario del Tesoro statunitense, Scott Bessent, in un post su X ha scritto: "Mercoledì farò tappa a Seul per un colloquio con il Vice Primo Ministro cinese He Lifeng, prima di proseguire per Pechino per il Vertice dei Leader tra il Presidente Trump e il Presidente Xi". Il vertice Trump-Xi Trump si appresta a visitare la Cina per un vertice di alto livello con Xi, in cui i leader delle due maggiori economie mondiali dovrebbero concentrarsi sull'allentamento delle tensioni commerciali e su Taiwan, con la guerra in Medio Oriente che incombe sullo sfondo. Dazi e tregua commerciale Mentre Washington e Pechino si sono imposte reciprocamente dazi sulle esportazioni un anno fa, Trump e Xi hanno concordato una tregua commerciale di un anno durante il loro incontro di ottobre in Corea del Sud. I negoziatori chiave Sia Trump sia Bessent sono stati i principali negoziatori per Cina e Stati Uniti su tutte le questioni commerciali ed economiche. È probabile che i colloqui mettano a punto gli ultimi dettagli sugli annunci che verranno fatti durante il vertice Trump-Xi. Le tappe in Giappone Bessent aveva inoltre affermato che martedì avrebbe avuto colloqui preliminari a Tokyo con il Primo Ministro giapponese Sanae Takaichi e il Ministro delle Finanze Satsuki Katayama, insieme ad altri rappresentanti del settore pubblico e privato. Sicurezza economica "La sicurezza economica è sicurezza nazionale e non vedo l'ora di partecipare a una serie di incontri proficui per promuovere l'agenda economica 'America First' del Presidente Trump", ha dichiarato Bessent. Tariffs, talks US-China in South Korea AGI - Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng will hold commercial talks with US officials in South Korea next week ahead of the anticipated summit between leaders Xi Jinping and Donald Trump. This is reported by Chinese state media, according to which the two sides will meet on Tuesday and Wednesday to “consult on matters of mutual interest.” The Chinese Ministry of Commerce subsequently announced that Vice Premier He Lifeng, Beijing’s top economic official, will participate in “consultations on economic and trade issues of mutual interest” in South Korea on Tuesday and Wednesday of next week. Bessent’s Message US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent wrote on X: “I will be in Seoul on Wednesday to meet with Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng, before continuing to Beijing for the Leaders Summit between the President Trump and the President Xi.” The Trump-Xi Summit Trump is preparing to visit China for a high-level summit with Xi, where the leaders of the world’s two largest economies are expected to focus on easing trade tensions and on Taiwan, with the war in the Middle East looming in the background. Tariffs and Trade Truce While Washington and Beijing had imposed tariffs on each other’s exports a year ago, Trump and Xi agreed to a one-year trade truce during their October meeting in South Korea. Key Negotiators Both Trump and Bessent were the main negotiators for China and the United States on all trade and economic issues. The talks are likely to fine-tune the details of announcements that will be made during the Trump-Xi summit. Steps in Japan Bessent had also stated that he would have preliminary talks on Tuesday with Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi and Finance Minister Satsuki Katayama, along with other representatives from the public and private sectors. Economic Security “Economic security is national security and I look forward to participating in a series of fruitful meetings to promote President Trump’s ‘America First’ economic agenda,” Bessent said. #SouthKorea #Lifeng #XiJinping #DonaldTrump #Chinese #HeLifeng #Beijing #Treasury #ScottBessent #Seoul #Trump #China #Taiwan #theMiddleEast #Washington #Bessent #theUnitedStates #Japan #Japanese #SanaeTakaichi #Finance #SatsukiKatayama https://www.agi.it/economia/news/2026-05-11/dazi-colloqui-usa-cina-36991576/

Times of India | FPIs continue to exit Indian markets, sold Rs 60,847 cr worth equities in April AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. Foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) withdrew a total of Rs 60,847 crore from Indian equities in April, adding to a massive Rs 1,17,775 crore sell‑off in March and bringing cumulative 2026 outflows to Rs 1,91,969 crore. Analysts attribute the outflows to a broader shift of capital toward Asian markets that are benefiting from the artificial‑intelligence‑driven investment boom, especially South Korea and Taiwan, where large semiconductor and technology firms such as Samsung, SK Hynix and TSMC are attracting strong foreign inflows. In contrast, India and other emerging markets are facing headwinds from the energy crisis and currency depreciation, prompting investors to pull money out. The trend is expected to persist as long as AI‑related stocks dominate global investment strategies, although concerns about overvaluation in those stocks remain.

How South Korea plans to use the Iran crisis to spur a renewables revolution

In Guyang-ri, a farming village of 70 households about 90 minutes south-east of Seoul, people gather for communal free lunches six days a week. The meals are funded by the village’s one-megawatt solar installation, which generates roughly 10m won ($6,800) in net profit each month. “Residents eat lunch together every day, so we see each other’s faces, talk together,” says Jeon Joo-young, the village chief. “Bonds and solidarity between residents become much stronger. Life becomes more enjoyable.”

Life becomes more enjoyable.” The shift has been dramatic. Before the solar project launched in 2022, the village of about 130 people had no restaurant, no easy way to move around, and little communal infrastructure. Now solar revenue pays for meals, a village “happiness bus” for elderly people, a table-tennis facility and cultural activities. The village deliberately chose to spend solar income on welfare rather than individual dividends, a decision Jeon says residents made themselves rather than being persuaded." https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/apr/16/south-korea-solar-power-renewables-revolution #SouthKorea #SolarEnergy #Renewables #Solar #SolarPower
