Shanghai Pact
The Shanghai Pact, a regional trade and economic cooperation agreement among East Asian countries, advanced with its April 2026 summit emphasizing increased digital infrastructure connectivity and trade facilitation to counter global supply chain disruptions. Its main driver is escalating geopolitical fragmentation impacting global trade, pushing members toward stronger intra-regional integration. However, progress risks remain due to ongoing China-US tensions and divergent national industrial policies that could impede harmonization efforts.
