Chile’s president said Wednesday that ongoing protests have forced him to cancel a summit next month at which President Donald Trump planned to sign an interim trade agreement with China's President Xi Jingping.
On Monday, Trump told reporters he'd"probably" sign the agreement."I imagine the meeting is scheduled for Chile," he said."I know they have some difficulties, right now, in Chile. But I know the people of Chile and I'm sure they'll be able to work it out." Chile has been rocked by protests for 12 days, with demonstrators demanding greater economic equality and better public services, according to the AP. Some vandalism and arson has also taken place.
