TOKYO (Reuters) – Members of the Group of Seven advanced nations are prepared to build “constructive and stable relations” with China while acting in their national interests, according to a draft version of their communique seen by Reuters on Friday.
The leaders, who kicked off a three-day summit in the Japanese city of Hiroshima that goes until Sunday recognise that “economic resilence requires de-risking and diversifying” from the world’s second-largest economy, the draft showed.
The final version of the communique is expected to be released on Sunday.
