Decision: States and Everyone

decision: Everyone will be talking about it, no doubt about that, the prime minister said, ahead of leaving Sydney for the summit on Thursday, according to Nine News Australia. It was the election of a new president in the United States - a momentous decision for the United States and for the whole world. The US-president elect wont be at the APEC leaders summit but his presence will be keenly felt especially around any discussion of the Trans-Pacific Partnership. Mr Trump is expected to deliver the last rites to the controversial 12-country free trade pact after his inauguration in mid-January. The prime minister said the APEC leaders would focus on breaking down trade barriers. That wont stop Mr Turnbull lobbying the US to ratify the TPP, with an argument the deal is in the superpower strategic and economic interest. (news.financializer.com). As reported in the news.
