CHINESE PRESS RELEASE:

Announcement of the People's Republic to neighbors, friends, and colleagues:

The People's Republic of China is eager, in the wake of the failure of the Trans-Pacific Partnership, to establish excellent trading relationships with its regional partners. Therefore we would like to welcome proposed members of the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (India, Japan, South Korea, Australia, New Zealand, and others highlighted above) to a new round of discussions to be held in Beijing, with the special focus on finalizing the agreement and moving forward to setting it in stone.

Creating a wide area of trade within our region will grow our businesses, create jobs, and better the lives of our people. Together our nations hold a large percentage of the global population, resources, and GDP, so cooperation will undoubtedly be beneficial for all.
