China and Costa Rica begin free trade talks

China and Costa Rica begin free trade talks

SAN JOSE – China and Costa Rica on Monday began talks for a free trade treaty under which the Central American nation hopes to export meat, plants, fruit and coffee to the Asian giant, officials said.

Costa Rica is the third Latin American country to negotiate a free trade deal with China after Chile and Peru, which concluded its deal late last year.
A major exporter of computer components, Costa Rica has dismissed fears of an invasion of Chinese products into the country as it seeks to diversify ties amid worldwide financial woes.
The first round of talks in the Costa Rican capital, recently rocked by a strong earthquake, are due to end Friday and the process is due to end before President Oscar Arias leaves office in May 2010. – Nampa-AFP
