Court Upholds Peru Control of Chinese Port in Win for Washington

A Peruvian court ruled that the Chinese-operated port of Chancay, near Lima, falls under the oversight of Peru's infrastructure regulator Ositran, overturning a previous exemption — a decision that could affect port operations and governance at this key transpacific hub. The ruling, which can still be appealed, introduces regulatory uncertainty for COSCO Shipping Ports and may impact the port's operations connecting Latin America and Asia.
