The APEC Peru 2024 was the annual meeting of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation Forum of its leaders that was held from 15 to 16 November 2024. It was the third time Peru has hosted the summit, having previously hosted in 2016 and 2008.

In 2021, Óscar Maúrtua, the minister of foreign affairs of Peru, announced the organization of the 2024 APEC summit.^[1] On February 10, 2022, the prime minister of Thailand, Prayut Chan-o-cha, in his capacity as current president of APEC, announced the United States as host of the 2023 meeting and Peru for 2024.^[2]^[3]

Participants

APEC Peru 2024 was the first APEC meeting for New Zealand Prime Minister Christopher Luxon, who assumed the premiership on 27 November 2023; Singaporean Prime Minister Lawrence Wong, who assumed the premiership on 15 May 2024; Thai Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra, who assumed the premiership on 16 August; and Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba, who assumed the premiership on 1 October; Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto, who assumed the presidency on 20 October; and Vietnamese President Lương Cường, who assumed the presidency on 21 October. This meeting would also be Taiwanese President Lai Ching-te's first APEC summit under his presidency, having assumed it on 20 May. However, Lai appointed Lin Hsin-i as Taiwan's representative to the summit; Lin previously represented Taiwan at the 2005 summit.

On the other hand, It was also the last APEC meeting for United States President Joe Biden after withdrawing from the 2024 U.S. presidential election and the second inauguration of Donald Trump, South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol (due to the suspension of his presidency in 14 December 2024 following the success of the second impeachment attempt), and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau after his resignation on 6 January 2025.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum, Papua New Guinean Prime Minister James Marape and Philippine President Bongbong Marcos announced that they would not attend APEC Peru 2024 meeting, which would have been the first in-person APEC meeting for Sheinbaum; while on the other hand, Marcos cited the recent typhoons affecting the Philippines. Instead, Sheinbaum, Marape and Marcos have designated Mexican Economic Secretary Marcelo Ebrard, Papua New Guinean Deputy Prime Minister John Rosso and then-acting Philippine Trade Secretary Cristina Aldeguer-Roque as their respective representatives to the summit.^[4]^[5] Meanwhile, Russian President Vladimir Putin did not attend the summit because Peru is a member of the International Criminal Court, which has issued an arrest warrant against Putin for his war crimes relating on the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and hence it is highly likely that the Peruvian Ministry of Justice would implement the warrant to arrest the Russian president; with Deputy Prime Minister Alexey Overchuk designated to serve as Putin's representative to the summit, instead.

Notes

^ The president of China is legally a ceremonial office, but the general secretary of the Chinese Communist Party (de facto leader in one-party communist state) has always held this office since 1993 except for the months of transition.
^ Due to the complexities of the relations between it and the People's Republic of China, the Republic of China (ROC or "Taiwan") was not represented under its official name "Republic of China" or as "Taiwan". Instead, it participates in APEC under the name "Chinese Taipei". The president of the Republic of China does not attend the annual APEC Economic Leaders' Meeting in person. Instead, it was generally represented by a ministerial-level official responsible for economic affairs or someone designated by the president. See List of Chinese Taipei representatives to APEC.^{[citation needed]}
